I didn't find that, do you remember where it was on the site?

Thanks, I guess that answers the original question for the e-class, it says "coming summer 2010."

As a 2011.

(In VW Speak that would be a 2010 and a half.)

Blue Efficiency injector recall?

The bean counters in Stuttgart have really,really screwed up this time.

No 4 Cylinder Mercedes Diesel for North America (Or Anywhere else)
anytime soon!

http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/engine/77050-blue-efficiency-injector-recall.html
(This is now a 30 + page post and growing)

"Affected are about 25,000 units in Germany, theoretically, the 220 CDI and 250 CDI in the C-, E-and GLK-Class, says a spokesman at the request of sports and auto motor."

German stocks - Factors to watch on October 9

FRANKFURT, Oct 9 (Reuters) - The following are some of the factors that may move German stocks on Friday:

DAIMLER

The luxury automaker faces quality problems for its new flagship diesel engines for the C and E class models, German daily Handelsblatt reports citing an unnamed spokesman. Defect injection nozzles from car parts maker Delphi led to a recall of 25,000 cars in Germany, the newspaper adds.

"Bosch and Continental use hydraulic action in their Piezo injectors to lift and lower the needle valve in the injector: Piezo ceramics change size when an electric charge is applied and that provides the motive force

Delphi however goes on about a “direct acting” piezo system which means it is much quicker but that requires a long piezo stack directly linked to a needle valve.

All that could perhaps be simply less robust than older designs and is in engines that have the fuel pressure cranked up to 2000Bar: 29,000psi in old money!"
