Just had B service completed on my 70,000m CLK230 Kompressor. Dealership said everything was fine but the ECU was full of oil! A seal has perished on the cam magnet and oil has travelled down the cables into the ECU.
He said it's a case of when, not if the ECU will fail. Looking at $2500 / £1300 for an exhange ECU, new wiring looms and labour.
Is this plausible? The car is not exhibiting any symptoms of low performance, misfiring etc. If the ECU is flooded with oil why is it still working? Will it fail suddenly?
