Take a look at Fred's TDI Forums (http//forums.tdiclub.com) under the "Non VW Group TDI, CDI & Diesels" section. There is a thread titled "Benz modifications", the guy shows a photo of his engine where he replaced the entire air filter housing, oil separator, and breather hose on his 617 turbo diesel. It sounds like a good idea, but won't the breather on the valve cover turn black after a while and create a mess? It looks good, and I am willing to try it on my car, but would like to consult with my fellow MB diesel nuts before proceeding. Please advise.

Your link doesn't work.

You need to eliminate the ( )'s for starters, and add a : after the http. From there, it's up to uou to fix it...
