What is the difference between the N57D30A and other N57 engines?

The N57D30A makes 190 kW (258 HP) and 560 Nm. The other N57 engines are: N57D30B with 230 kW (313 HP) and 630 Nm (2011 to 2018); N57D30S with 280 kW (381 HP) and 740 Nm (2012 to 2018).

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.
