I have 195k on my 603.971, 50k are mine. Original engine. Quite sure I do not have the rod bending problem. I do have a few other issues : no apparent blowby, some oil leaks, an injector that has started *pinging*, ... they are just waiting for me to get some free time or an alternative daily driver. Engine purrrrrs, starts right up, still has egr. I cannot hear my turbo from inside the car but it must work - I've been told if it didn't work I'd be complaining about power - not really sure I would recognize the sound anyway - my w140 is Quiet.

When looking through the online Startek docs for the W126 '91 350SD or 350SDL I haven't noticed any glaring differences with my manuals or what I find poking around in/on the engine.
