W460 Fuel Tank - Plastic Upgrade or Repair

artiei

Observer
I noticed some fluid from the back of my car in late August of 2015. A quick wiff and I discovered it was diesel fuel. DANG! I decided to remove the tank to see what the issue was and as usual.. pandora's box opened. I had to decide to replace or repair. After a LOT of research I decided to forgo the $1200 plastic upgrade and $1800 kit, but during the process I found less costly options, MB part numbers and a great solution. If you, like me, had a hard time finding info, I documented removal, process, part numbers, German suppliers and my final decision on my blog. CLICK HERE to read about it.
