Engine cut out at 70mph on the motorway, following a sudden loss of majority of the engine oil, there had not been any oil leaks, even spots, prior to the final journey.

Car is a 64 Plate, 2.125cc Diesel, full MB MaIn Dealer Service history from new, just done 51k miles, last serviced with MB end of Jan 2020.

Car was towed back to my MB maindealer for investigation/repair, just prior to their enforced closure, workshop comment was that the engine was terminal....

At just 50k miles and a full MB Service history what level of assistance in terms of £contribution can you expect from MB Headquaters??

Or should i pursue getting a Recon Engine / Younger Rep Engine from an independant Workshop, bite the bullet and put it all down to a very bad MB experience.....

Does my spec of Engine have a history of high failure rate / issues??

Any wise words on my dire MB situation are most welcome.
