  • Mercedes Diagnosing Diesel Engine Excess Smoke and Lack of Power

    The smoke is trying to tell you something. You need to pay attention and act accordingly

    Smoke coming from a Mercedes diesel indicates that something is wrong with the engine and/or related systems. This should be taken as a warning.  If not dealt with, the problem (s) causing the smoke will potentially result in high repair costs later or it may shorten the life of the engine. If you take your high mileage diesel into a shop to fix the problem it could end up costing you thousands of dollars. In most cases the cause of the smoke on these old diesels is due to more than one problem. The only economical way to fix the problem and make sure it is done right is to do the diagnosis and repairs yourself.
