What is the difference between the M62B44 and other M62 engines?

The M62B44 makes 210 kW (286 HP) and 440 Nm. The other M62 engines are: M62B35 with 173 kW (235 HP) and 345 Nm (1996 to 1998).

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.
