Any downsides to the '07 diesel ML?

I read about the Balance Shaft issue on 06-07 ML350 models? I don't believe the diesel models are affected, correct?

Are there any other issues the '07 CDI models have that were later resolved? Just wondering if there is basically anything "wrong" with that model year.

Had my '07 320CDI for nearly 2 years now. As far as I know, the balance shaft issue only affects the petrol 350 - different engine code.

Main faults:

- Leaking turbo oil seal (every single diesel ML of my vintage that I've ever heard of has either had his fault or it's there just waiting to happen)

- Phantom MIL in low temperatures fixed with software flash.

I know I'll regret saying this, but apart from consumables and servicing that's it for me so far.
