[QUOTE="mocus250, post: 130251, member: 23770"] My understanding that with late model diesels with DEF systems, idling will plug the diesel exhaust filters prematurely. Also, there is less complete combustion on any diesel at idle and can lead to excessive carbon buildup and wear on the engine.. Here is an article on the subject. [URL unfurl="true"]https://learndiesels.com/8-idle-facts/[/URL] Some older diesel motors used to be hard to start cold but typically thats not the case now. That being said, last time I bought a starter for my S-250 it was $450 bucks. Probably more these days. [/QUOTE]
