22nd Aachen Colloquium Automobile and Engine Technology 2013 1 The Mercedes-Benz OM 651 Four-Cylinder Diesel Engine for Worldwide Use Dipl.-Ing. Peter Lückert, Dipl.-Ing. Dirk Busenthür, Dipl.-Ing. Stefan Arndt, Dipl.-Ing. Heiko Sass Daimler AG, Stuttgart, Germany Summary The four-cylinder diesel engine, with the in-house code OM 651, was launched for the first time in 2008 in the C-Class. Since then, it has been used in almost all Mercedes-Benz passenger car and van variants – an unprecedented range of deployment and the highest production volume for a single assembly within the Mercedes-Benz Cars Group. The basic design of the major assembly was planned for a wide array of applications, with the objective of using a high number of shared parts. This article presents the most significant basic engine layouts, describing the technological modules from the initial design and also the characteristics of the variants – from the transverse configuration in Mercedes front-wheel architecture and hybridization in the powertrains of the E- and S-Classes to commercial vehicle applications. It also deals with the changes to exhaust gas aftertreatment in Europe (EU6), the variant for the USA (BIN5), and the special emissions requirements for commercial vehicles. The article makes particular reference to the development issues relating to variation in major assemblies, cost efficiency and premium standards in product characteristics, as well as setting out an intended path forwards. It closes with a description of the OM 651 Eco, the latest evolution in the lifecycle of the major assembly range. With this current incarnation of the Mercedes-Benz four-cylinder diesel engine, the E-Class E220 BlueTec and the variants of the transverse assembly, such as the
