I don't think a BMW diesel is much like an Oldsmobile diesel. But it is more like that engine than it is like a 15 litre medium duty truck diesel in a Kenworth, which is getting broken in at 80,000 miles. Automobile engines have more in common with each other than they do with much heavier truck engines.
