My buddie's 300SD had a timing chain failure at around 300k. Shattered the valve cover.

the 93 300D OM602 has a set of bad timing gears, and there is a recall on the cars for timing chain breakage... I have an example of that failure in my yard... nasty...

It is not a broken chain you should be concerned about! It is the excessive stretch! These chains can stretch enough to hop teeth on the cam sprockets. This usually happens at low revs or on immediate startup as there is little or no oil pressure feeding the tensioner. Very wise to check the stretch if your vehicle has done more than 10000klms as, as you can see it can have catastrophic consequences.

The non-turbo Engines have more of a problem with that because the Timing Chain Tensioner does not have the Ratchet that holds the Piston from being pushed back. That means any issues with the Oil Pressure have an adverse effect on keeping the Timing Chain Tensioned. The 6 Cylinder Mercedes Diesel Car Engines seem to have more Timing Chain and Sproket issues. You can remove the Valve Cover and line up the Timing Marks on the Camshaft and get a rough idea of how much Chain Stretch you have.
