Did Mercedes invent the diesel engine?
In 1926, Daimler-Benz, still a young company at the time, began designing a six-cylinder diesel engine for trucks; this was to have a higher power output and a therefore a higher engine speed: 1,300 revolutions in the six-cylinder vs. Development of the diesel engine for passenger cars began in 1933.
Why was diesel promoted?
Diesels were promoted as the environmentally-friendly choice because they use less fuel and more air to get the same performance as a petrol engine. This ‘lean-burn’ was a huge selling point. CO2 emissions – On average, petrol emits around 200g CO₂/km. For diesel, the average is around 120g CO₂/km.
Which is the most advanced Mercedes diesel engine?
Diesel Mercedes-Benz cars, SUV and Sprinter vans equipped with BlueTEC engines are one of the most advanced diesel engines in the world. High-pressure fuel injection system and variable geometry turbochargers ensure optimal combustion.
What happens when Mercedes diesel engine is not running?
As Mercedes DPF traps and holds soot, with time it reaches a point when it needs to be ‘emptied out’. This is done by regeneration. During this automated process, engine computer rises exhaust gasses temperature over 630°C. This burns up soot particles. However, if the engine is not running correctly automatic regeneration will not be started.

Why does my Mercedes 300 have 115 injectors?
For example, older 300 diesels used injectors that were used in the 240 and perhaps the 220 diesel engine (the number 115 sticks in my mind, but I am not certain). This may have been due to the lower fuel quality found in the remote areas of the world, and since the G engine is set up for different torque and rpm demands.
