V6cdi High milers

[prm]

Anyone got any high mileage V6 320/280cdi cars. I know the 4/5 pot engines are good, even the i6, but are the V6's up to high mileage?

Serviced one last week with over 100k on the clock. Talk about Smooth........................................like a Swiss Watch

Hoping its just run in at 100k

Should be fine, most modern diesels are capable of well over 200k if maintained properly.

Just come back from the airport in a 4 year old e280 with 300k. Driver said only time it ever broke was a warranty replaced turbo at 50k. It was in great nick too.

very very good engines, seen them with over 200K on the clock...

The only thing that seems to go is the inlet port shut off motor... we have done a few and they are not the easiest of jobs unless you have fingers the size of pencils.
