Bosch 0986435127 is a common-rail injector remanufactured by Bosch for the 2005 and 2006 Mercedes-Benz E320 CDI with the 3.2L inline six OM648 diesel. It replaces Mercedes-Benz A6480700387. Sold as one injector; the engine takes six. A refundable core applies.

The new version of this injector is Bosch 0445110193, and both fit the same cars. The 2007 and newer E320 diesel has the 3.0L V6 and takes a different injector, and the Sprinter 2.7L five-cylinder takes Bosch 0986435109, so order by engine. These injectors carry a classification code that has to be entered in the engine computer when they are fitted. Hard starting, a rough idle, a miss or smoke are the usual reasons they get replaced, and dirty or watered fuel is the usual cause.
