Had a D4D that would sometimes just die under hard acceleration, when overtaking etc.
After various fault findings it was the sensor on the common rail tube. It also did not throw any errors.
When it died, You just turn the key of and on and will start first shot again.

But dont strip the threads, that aluminium on cooler cant take alot of force.
Over time some oil do go through the system, no need to panic.

If the price diff aint much, ask Insurance to rather go for the loadbin. Or you can even pay in if need be. I would.
