I'm very rarely on this site anymore. Haven't had a diesel MB in a while and the '95 E320 just never seems to break. I drop in now and then to check for PM's, but rarely comment.

Search for that part number. The hoses should still be available. I just replaced the ones on my '83 500SL last year. The hoses weren't expensive and were available from multiple vendors.

Come drive in Texas sometime. My well-tuned 560SEL is pretty slow for some of this traffic and it's like a rocketship in warp-drive compared to even a turbodiesel. The N/A's are SLOW.
