If it were my car, the only worry I would have is that the oil pressure drops when the engine is idling slowly. 700rpm sounds OK but keep an eye on the oil pressure when the engine is hot. It shouldn't be a problem in the UK till next summer - whenever that is!

However, if you are planing a trip to Spain or the Sahara, you might want to take some precautions.

That is exactly what I would expect it to be on a diesel engine of that size and type. It's just the sem on mine.
I wouldn't worry at all. Very Happy
