I read that cold starting an old diesel car ''takes'' off like 2000km from the engine. Its just really bad making the pistons work when so cold, they actually ''scratch'' the surfice around them while doing so. Is it true? Greeting from Norway and a proud w124 92' owner :)

stefpatras they have to be cold started some time. I’m sure Mercedes took into consideration extreme cold starts.
Just glow plugs, or do you have a block heater also?
Just the regular pre-glow :-)
nice, is this a turbo? I have the om606 with 533.000 km
No, non-turbo 603 :-) Slow but dead reliable...
