Larry,
"Fix it": loosen and repeat the three step torque procedure.
Take a close look at the clearances above the IP, to make sure you can
fit a torque wrench in there. On my OM603 the intake manifold makes it
a very tight fit. A smaller torque wrench may be required.

Harry,
Rough idle can be caused by internal leak at copper washer OR by worn
elements inside the delivery valve. I suspect that you really have to
know what you are looking for to identify worn elements inside the DV;
new DV are pricey, but for the novice a strategy may be to purchase one

Larry,
Factory procedure is, for some strange MB reason, only found in the
Technical Data Books. It does apply to your car. You need the special
socket (call Rusty, get the springs at same time) and a torque wrench,
and clearance above each delivery valve holder (the common name for

Hi Harry -
I looked in the WSM for the procedure for replacing the Pressure Valve
Seals (07.1 - 8627) and the only mention of torque is when they say "Torque
to 35 Nm using special tool 617 589 01 09 00".
Perhaps the 3 step procedure you recall is for a different engine?
Anyway - I need

I have installed my euro hitch (if anyone needs the factory directions
give a shout) but haven't yet installed the factory wiring harness, and
have not yet towed anything. I think that the maximum rating for my

I did have a euro hitch on my 1
I think I explained it wrong - based on what the service advisor told me. I

where they screw into the top of the IP - at least it was wet when I looked
at it in the dark last night. I suspect the Service advisor didn'
