The local Mercedes repair told me to stay away from bluetechs to. I do alot of work for them so they're pretty straightforward wuth me.
HioSSilver you mentioned not being sold on ceramic coatings. Here is how I dry my car. Give ceramic a try after your next paint correction.

Correct, 1300rwhp isn't boring
No it's not...been there, done that
Interesting - I've owned two, know of plenty with high mileage. The DEF system doesn't need to be modded, and it's easily fixed if you run into an issue. I only suggested the delete as an alternative. But I guess my ownership, plus the other 4 close friends I have with Bluetecs, is totally different than your mechanic's experience.

Bluetechs aren't very good.....or you wouldn't be talking about modding them to keep them going. It's even reflective in the price. The newer bluetech is less expensive than the 05/06 cdi models.

Could be. Glad you've had good luck with yours. The def system on everything is a pita. I guess the real difference is isn't that they can't go high mileage.....it's the cost getting there. When we started looking i read up a bunch on the models and differences because i simply didn't know anything about either. The i6 cdi definitely seemed to have the better following and reliability factor. No particulate filter to replace either on the old cdi stuff.

Pretty sure he didn't make 1000+. But if that's the excuse you need to tell yourself to avoid him that's on you.

My guess is as with alot of stuff and especially modding a german car deleting is probably $$$. And if i were to try to resale a deleted diesel here it limits the area to sell it. There are counties near here that have emissions......and who knows when they will try and implement that here. All the **** from the city has alre6had a larger influence here than they should have.
