I think they all need will need head gasket work eventually. I read that there is a design flaw on the original gaskets...Same for the m104.

Mine went at 210k.

The current m103 has about 107k on it and there is a tiny bit of oil seeping out of the gasket by the 6th cylinder. Not enough to put any drops on the ground or cause any problems. It uses maybe less than 1 quart of oil per change (7500-8000 mile interval).
