With my diesel and a working glow plug relay it takes two turns and it fires up. Recently the relay died and it takes about 10 seconds of cranking. I need a new relay.
Replacing a starter on the om617 is not fun, especially on the turbocharged model. I turn my car off when I have to wait for my turn to go when there is a one way road due to construction. I seem to catch lights at the right time.
Also, my engine doesn't consume that much fuel at idle.
