Another interesting thing I've read recently is that the SBC braking system is now fully warranted for 25, yes, Twenty Five, years! So a 2030 and 2031 for a CDI..... might consider one at some point now! Maybe if/when my 320 wagon bites the dust eventually from rust.

E320 CDI
Those are absolutely great videos! I particularly lied the "Black Death" one. I have a 2005 E320CDi and agree is almost the perfect car.

Check out his later videos on the car where he's fighing to remove a black death infested injector. Fun times. He over paid for it imho.

Its a lot less dangerous to work on a diesel fuel tank than a gasoline model at least....

Wish I had kept my CDI, pretty sure my injectors would have came out somewhat easily.

I think you were very instrumental in helping me decide to get a CDI. Yes, you should have kept it. I have only seen one other green one, but not in person, just a photo. I really like the green color.....Rich

I needed a vehicle I could put large items in and a CDI wagon doesn’t exist so I got the Element to do the trick.
Everything is good. I pop in every now and then to check on OD and instaban trolls |

Take it to the dealer and have them pull a VMI on it, that will tell you whether it's been done or not.

On the wagon you can pull the driver's side fuel tank access cover in about a minute. Its really obvious if it's been replaced or not. I would hate to run into this problem after the warranty runs out. Sometimes the fuel leak is small there isn't an obvious smell.
