Sprinter 906
MG5
Engine – 3.0L Turbo Diesel BlueTec
Details & Technology
OM 642 six-cylinder diesel engine with
common-rail direct injection
(CDI) and fuel
preheating.
An intake-metered high-pressure pump sends fuel to the high-pressure accumulator (fuel rail),
where pressures of up to 1600 bar [23,200 PSI] is developed. The electrically controlled
injectors inject the fuel directly into the combustion chamber.
Thanks to the very high injection pressures, this system ensures excellent mixture formation.
The electronic management allows good adaptation of injection timing and quantity to
operating and driving conditions.

Benefits
• High flexibility
• High torque
• Powerful acceleration
• Optimized fuel consumption
• Meets EPA 2013 emission standard
• Low noise
Noise, exhaust emissions and fuel consumption are optimized by multi-stage injection and a
turbocharger.
Optimization of the engine control unit and the use of a diesel particulate filter with DEF
(Diesel Emission Fluid) enable this engine to meet the stringent exhaust emission limits of
EPA 2013 standard and is 50 states certified.
High torque output already at very low RPM (1400 to 2400 RPM).
IMPORTANT: Biodiesel B5 only!
