Technical service information for Mercedes Benz
The Mercedes-Benz OM 457 and OM 460
series of diesel engines starting at engine
number 085588 make use of modified
cylinder heads.
However, these parts in the assembly (cylinder
head and gasket) are also compatible with older
engines up to engine number 085588.
Please make sure that the cylinder-head
gasket / repair set always fits the cylinder
head. Making a mistake here will damage the
engine. Furthermore, make sure that the sealing
surfaces are level in the event of a repair.
It is absolutely essential to repair depressions
or deformations in parts.
While the previous cylinder head has an even
sealing surface, the modified design features a
groove milled out around the drillings for water/
pressurised oil. The cylinder-head gasket was
adjusted to increase its sealing capacity.
The main features which distinguish the
cylinder head gasket are that the rubber gasket
lips of the drillings for water/pressurized oil are
about 3 mm higher.
