New Moderator in Diesel Discussion
I am pleased to announce that vstech will be the new Moderator in Diesel Discussion.
John has been a very active member of the Shop Forum since he joined in March 2006. He has over 10,000 posts with most of those in DD. As you already know, he has a solid knowledge of Mercedes diesels, owns several himself and has been freely helping other members with their technical issues for as long as he's been here. Please welcome John as your new co-Moderator along with current co-Moderator JimSmith. Diesel Discussion is one of the most active and knowledgeable communities we have on the Shop Forum. Both of these individuals are committed to seeing DD grow and flourish.
