Description of the problem | Low pressure fuel line needed replacing. This was due to a fuel smell in the cabin when cold. Mercedes indicated fuel lines are considered wear and tear and even though it was leaking , was not covered under pre owned warranty or recall. The fuel line appears cracked due to misinstallation vs rubber cracking due to age as one side was pristine and the other had a crack in it. This is noticeable at idle , when the car is cold and the heat is blowing. |
