Does that mean MB does not sell the parts? Or you haven't tried to get the
rebuild parts? I wonder if they're available from the turbo manufacturer?
Can't recall the name at the moment but they're a subsidiary of
Allied-Signal now Honeywell.

Yes, I replaced the bent rod (# 1). Cylinders looked good. Blowby is
minimal.
I am relatively confident the problem is with the turbo, but am
unwilling to spend the $400 to buy one from a junkyard that was pulled
from a wreck and probably needs a rebuild. But if I could get the
parts, I would not need to buy a used one from the junkyard. I'd
rebuild the one I have.

Ouch.

That's supposed to be common, said blowby being caused
by bent connecting rods and oval cylinders.
