You need to do lash valves adjustment every 12 000mls, replace all the vacuum actuators, and check the doors latches, replace there rubbers only.
This engine should have 15w40 or thicker. When you idle on a hot engine , you have to have at list 2 bars oil pressure.Also you need to do engine purch with Liqui Moly

I have not seen any problem with the oil viscosity. The service on the sticker from the door was fine. What is important is what the owner's manual says. (Summary of the operating instructions on the last page to quickly find what is recommended.) The only thing I saw as a problem in the video was the "preglow indicator lamp" in the dashboard. (Turn key in steering lock to position “ 2”. Charge indicator and preglow indicator lamp must come on.The preglow process starts. When the preglow indicator goes out, the engine is ready for starting.) Apparently the "preglow indicator lamp" is defective.

5w40 synthetic is just fine for the OM617, also the oil pressure at idle can go as low as .5 bar if very warm and the oil cooler is open. As long as it jumps back up to 3 bar off idle its fine. They do need valve adjustments every ~15k miles.

Car is like new. despite that age you don't have to change all that,! German quality of rubber and other components. what are you talking about?

[@donny526]

Wonderful auto

[@anthonynicholich9654]

Longest lasting Diesel (OM617) in the world and that's with the camshaft in the head red lining at 6.000 RPM still lasted longer than any other diesel. maybe Detroit should take notes or maybe not too arrogant for that. Probably should have done that 40 years ago.
