The reason it happens to the dpf engines is the thinner 0w30 oil in combination with the fuel dillution and the 30000km oil change interval.
Wich wears the lifters.
The previous euro3 engines dont have this problem due to the thicker oil with more zinc dopes and no fueldillution.
The job took me 10 hours, but i did it easy going , you need to be precise with torque up bolts on the camshaft bearings
