⚙️ Engines — what to expect
Mercedes OM611 2.2 CDI (4-cyl) — OM611
Known issues
- Injector seals leak over time — black tar (black death) around injectors. (~100–500 € repair)
- Vacuum-actuated turbo can stick — loss of power. (~200–600 € repair)
Mercedes OM646 2.2 CDI (gen2, W203/W211) — OM646
Known issues
- Same as OM611 — injector copper seals degrade. (~100–500 € repair)
- EGR system clogs with soot — reduced power and rough idle. (~200–500 € repair)
Mercedes 2.1 CDI diesel — OM651
Known issues
- Injector seal bolts can round off during removal. Requires specialist extraction. Budget for this at service. (~500–1 200 € repair)
- Early OM651 can develop chain stretch and rattling at higher mileage. (~1 200–2 500 € repair)
- Alternator clutch pulley wears out, causing squealing noise and eventual alternator bearing failure. (~200–500 € repair)
- EGR cooler can crack internally, causing coolant loss and white smoke. (~500–1 200 € repair)
- Black residue around injectors indicates seal leak. Can cause rough running. (~150–400 € repair)
🚨 What to check before buying
Overall risk score: 10/10
Serious risks
- Injector seal leak: Injector seals leak over time — black tar (black death) around injectors.
- Turbo actuator (vacuum): Vacuum-actuated turbo can stick — loss of power.
- Car is 19 years old — expect age-related wear: rubber seals, bushings, water pump, AC compressor
- Higher mileage (248,306 km) — check for timing system condition, turbo health, and suspension wear
Additional notes
- Vehicle is 15+ years old. Age-related issues: rubber seals/hoses degrade, electrical connectors corrode, suspension bushings wear. Not specific to any engine, but expect €500-1,500/year in age-related maintenance beyond normal service items.
- Any car with 200k+ km requires extra scrutiny. At this mileage: suspension components are worn (bushings, ball joints, shocks), seals and gaskets are hardened, electrical connectors corrode, and major components approach end-of-life. For luxury cars (BMW, Mercedes, Audi) the cost of 200k+ km maintenance can exceed the car's value. Always get a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) and budget 15-25% of purchase price for immediate maintenance.
- Diesel car from before 2018 with very low mileage suggests city-only use — DPF is likely clogged or has been removed (illegal). Check DPF status and EGR condition.
- Vehicle is 15+ years old. Age-related issues: rubber seals/hoses degrade, electrical connectors corrode, suspension bushings wear. Not specific to any engine, but expect €500-1,500/year in age-related maintenance beyond normal service items.
