In short

B47 engines real photo 1

The B47 is a 2.0 diesel. It is in newer 320d, 520d, and X3 20d cars. It replaced the N47 and does not drop into an N47 car.

Look for B47D20A on the page. The power still changes from car to car.

Will it fit my car?

Check the code in the VIN. A 2016 520d and a 2012 520d need a different engine.

What we check

We do the same checks: oil, sump, turbo, and real photos of the engine.

How to pick the right engine

Use the B47 page. Do not buy an N47 just because the badge says 320d.

Warranty

Many engines come with up to 12 months warranty. A proper workshop must fit the engine. The warranty is for a fault inside the engine. It does not cover the wrong engine, a dry start, the wrong oil, or damage done after you open the crate.

Shipping

Crate shipping from Hamburg costs 299 EUR. We pack the engine in a strong crate and send it to the address on your order. You need a forklift or an engine crane to unload it.

FAQ
