    BMW to introduce more powerful and efficient version of twin-turbo 3.0-liter diesel



    BMW has just announced an upgraded version of its 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder diesel engine. The new version retains the same displacement, yet output for the European spec version is increased from 286 horsepower and 428 lb-ft of torque to 306 hp and 442 lb-ft. At the same time, fuel consumption and CO2 emissions are reduced by four percent compared to the previous version.

    BMW has updated the fuel injection system to its latest generation common rail system. That means the injector pressure has been bumped from 1,600 BAR (23,000 psi) to 2,000 BAR (29,000 psi), allowing for even more precise metering of the fuel flow. The dual stage turbocharger system is now also more efficient. Since BMW only just introduced a version of the previous engine with U.S. legal after-treatment systems in late 2008, it seems unlikely that the U.S. will receive the upgrades in the near future
    Again...the States gets shafted

    I'd take a modern Diesel any day. Very efficient and very high torque.

    ew

    they sound like fucking tractors, and I'm not kidding.

    98% of the VWs, Audis, Seats and Skodas here are TDIs and everytime some of them drive by at the same time, it sounds like a John Deere factory roll out.

    To the people that think this country sucks. You should go live someone else for awhile or forever.

    Wait till you start crying about health care and 10/gallon gas.

    i drove the 335d last week. it's geared so bad that you don't feel the 120lb-ft of torque advantage it has over the 335i. The steering feels was spectacular though, and the brakes were fantastic. i'd probably get the 335i if i was in the market right now.
