  "Mercedes is installing a dashboard alert that warns consumers when the 
urea level drops below one gallon. From there, owners will be on a countdown 
until the tank is topped off: the cars will start just 20 more times before they 
cannot be operated."

  I wonder if you could just pee in the tank to fill it?  If you put in a 
bigger 
urea tank and a spray boom can you moonlight as a spray coupe?  Oye!
  Has anybody else noticed that the "cleaner" diesels get, the less mileage 
they seem to make?  Seems the 5.7 did about the same or better than the 
6.2 which made better than the 6.5 which seems to have done a fair amount 
better than the Duramax.  Same thing seemed to happen with the Fords.
  Most anything we do to our VW diesels seems to increase mileage as 
well.  :-)
