First thing to check is whether it is very difficult to unscrew the oil fill cap with the engine running, indicating excess vacuum and a failing AOS.

Thanks for the tip Maurice. I'll run that test tomorrow.

How much of a complete tune-up can I expect to perform in my garage with an average set of tools? Ive worked on Japanese imports and 60/70's muscle cars but never a German Car.
