You will want to have the front upper spring perches checked, as well as the doors under the gaskets (keep an eye on them)... as well as the usual OM60x IP seal issues. (I understand that GP's can be a MAJOR hassle. When mine go, if they are stuck, I will pony up, then make sure to pull them and antisieze them... as well as an annual pulling/reaming of them as a prophylactic measure. BTW does anyone know the part number/price of an OM606 GP reamer? (The plugs are about 7" long IIRC, which really presents an opportunity for carbon to pack in there... Also, does HARD driving and lots of highway mileage help burn out any carbon which may have accumulated in there? The traction control DOES tend to kick in a bit much for my tastes (and it seems to kick in way early)... did they put ESP on the 210.025's or were they ASR only? I've definitely had to tone down my use of the pedal, as it behaves VERY differently from my (retired) 126.120 did... You can drive it like you stole it, but you need to disable ASR and I'm sure its hard on tires (chirp chirp).. The ONLY thing I would complain about is that the truck nozzle at the place where I fuel will ALMOST fit in the neck properly... if it had maybe 1/4" more clearance in the neck It would be good. (60gpm nozzle is sweet!) (although the "slow" nozzle is still 25gpm...)
