When you say 'low rpm' I presume you mean on light load too. Diesels are happier/most efficient when under part load. This would almost certainly mean a lower gear and higher revs to avoid 'lugging'. You may well have an injector nozzle which is leaking and/or not spraying correcly. If this is the case, get your injectors cleaned/reset as any misfire is likely to lead to excessive bore wear and oil dilution. There may, of course, be other reasons for the problem - broken ring(s), valve clearances, valve seating, etc. The problem needs to be nailed down, as the long term outcome will likely be much more expensive.
