No, STOP!
'Follow Jim's advice and FIND and remove your Passenger side Oil Pan Extension.
With it off you'll have access to almost ALL of the Oil Pan's nooks and crannies. R+R ing that main Oil Pan is not as easy as it looks ! "I don't remember if your car is applicable but look at the passenger side of the oil pan. See if there is either a cooler or additional section there. Drain the oil and remove that side piece screwed onto the oil pan if it is there. Pick up a new gasket to put in place when you reinstall it." The Gasket you'll need for replacing the ("Side") Lateral oil Pan is # 603 014 07 22 The Lateral pan is #11 in the pictorial , the gasket is # 17.

Thank you all for your help, truly. I believe the old girl is best for parts now, I give up. It is beyond me. Any parts, let me know. The only other choice is for me to pay somebody to come and fix it, but that is most likely not going to happen. Parts it is: 1993 300d with 214K miles, om602 diesel engine (2.5l) 5 cylinder. Any parts you guys want let me know. Any advice on which parts may fetch a few bucks? I am think injector pump, turbo, head, transmission, entire engine block, vacuum pump, injectors are recently rebuilt. Cheers

If all that is left is the missing link to find shame to part the car out. Cool off for a day or so and rethink the issue.
Many times walking away from some issue for a short time really helps put it into perspective. Increases your tollerance level as well. So far unless there is something you have not mentioned it is not a really bad issue. |

Yes as has been put forth already be sure to turn it over by hand sufficient to determine weather it has dropped down completely... In one case I retrieved a couple links from two prior chain jobs when I changed a vacuum pump that had some significant wear but had not exploded and I was fishing with a magnet in the timing cover from the vaccum pump access hole and was surprised to find two link resting at the bottom of the inside of the timing cover. I do not know if Brian would recomend the industry required to R&R the vacuum pump as apposed to the oil pan ( I have not done an oil pan and not sure what is required so cannot comment on a comparative effort level.
Best of luck to you |
