Description
The M57 is a water-cooled and turbocharged inline six cylinder diesel engine with common-
rail-injection. It was revised twice during its production time. It is based on its predecessor
M51. The block and the crankcase of the first M57 engines and the TÜ (Technische
Überarbeitung = revision) engines are made of cast iron, TÜ2 engines are made of aluminium
instead.[1] The combustion chamber was also changed in the TÜ2.[1] The injection pressure is
1350 bar[2] in the 2.5l engine, all other engines use a pressure of 1600 bar instead.[2] For fuel
injection, magnetic injectors are used, except from the TÜ2 OL and TOP engines, which
make use of piezo injectors.[2] The common-rail-system is made by Bosch and also controlled
by a Bosch DDE 5 ECU.[3] The M57 is equipped with one Garrett GT2556V turbocharger and
an intercooler, the M57TÜ uses a Garrett GT2260V turbocharger and intercooler and the
M57D30TÜTOP uses a BorgWarner KP39 high-pressure and a K26 low-pressure
turbocharger.[4] The compression ratio reaches from 16,5:1 to 18:1, M57 engines with higher
power output and more than one turbocharger have a lower compression ratio.[5] Every
cylinder has two inlet and two exhaust valves as well as two chain-driven overhead
camshafts.[6] The redline is 4750 rpm.
