It happened to my friends 240d, he was really upset because it developed a bad head gasket shortly after he bought it....had a local merc guy redo the head and gasket.....but the bottom end couldn't handle the increased compression so a bearing went bad...
If you have the cash buy a rebuilt engine, will promise it will last the rest of your life and its cheaper then a new car....if your on a budget find a good used lower milage one...
Raises a question, can one still buy a new engine through the dealer?
