How much torque does a TD5 produce?

My high cap 130 TD5 has this rattle (sounds like spare change in a tin) at

Is anyone else concerned about the 20'000km oil change intervals on the TD5
engines. Also the filter only gets a swap every 60'000km! I know it has the

modifications, as my wife keeps making noises about ...

Disco I, 1995 vintage.  The self-park on the wiper has gone flaky, which
also affects the intermittent wipe...  I've not looked yet but I'd bet on
the parking switch on the wiper motor, or possibly a wiring fault.
If it's the former, can the switch be replaced by itself or is it new ...
