the OM617.952 is the famous 5 cylinder turbodiesel with the iron head. Indestructable but slow. It can be modified to get more power ( www.superturbodiesel.com ) The finnish have gotten close 300 hp out of this 5 banger
I love my 5 cylender turbo diesel in my 300d.. those motors are virtually bullet proof.. there feel semi slow in the benz but then again the bens id 4000 lbs, the dang thing weighs more than my V8 grand Cherokee by almost a quarter ton..

ALways wanted a MB 300d motor in the Grand cherokee.. maybe some day?
