What is the difference between the B47D20T and other B47 engines?

The B47D20T makes 170 kW (231 HP) and 500 Nm. The other B47 engines are: B47D20 with 140 kW (190 HP) and 400 Nm (2014 to 2023).

Engines in one family share a basic block, but the turbo, the injection, the sensors and the engine computer can differ. A higher power version often has different pistons, a bigger turbo or a different fuel system.

This is why we ask for the exact code. Fitting a different version can work, but the wiring, the software and sometimes the gearbox must be changed to match.

Not sure? Send us your VIN and your gearbox code. We match the engine family, the year window and the parts on the engine before anything is reserved, and the check is free.
