I lost my 1997 850 @365000 km's with a blown seal because of service ingnorance at the dealer level. I bought it used and had it serviced as required leaving the details up to the dealer as they "knew" what should be done.
Be cetain you have the PCV, flame guard cleaned @96km and every 64km after. This had NEVER been done according to the service records even by the oringinal seller. I believe this also was the reason the car couldn't pass the E-test and I had to buy a new converter. Lesson learned.
