Who has a high mileage M111?
I have an M111 engine in a 2002 C230k Coupe. My current mileage is at
125k.
Who has another high mileage M111 engine? I'm wondering what kind of lifespan to predict for my car.
Of course this considers regular oil changes, etc.

125k.

My 94 C220 had 163k when first gear gave out. Sold her to someone who was going to work on it as a project car and get it going again. Otherwise, engine was solid. No leaks or burning of oil, just strong.

The crank seal got replaced yesterday and after sitting overnight, there does not seem to be any fresh oil. This is from a 99 C230.

Okay, because I just came from the junkyard and there was maybe two or three Kompressor's there and I was thinking about pulling a "spare" and just having that rebuilt/ported/polished but I have no idea what they would have charged me and its like 110 degrees here so I'll save it for another day.
