BMW Engine?? by cornishbob on Tue Apr 10, 2012 12:19 pm
I'm in the process of selling my frontera : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0857637385

and have been asked a question by a potential buyer, he's asked if it is the BMW engine?

Its the 2.5 TDS (is there a TD and a TDS or only one?) and is it a Beamer engine?

thanks all

PS any idea what horsepower it had at new?

No its not a BMW engine mate, its a VM engine. As for horsepower I gotta hunch they are about 130ish, but for a 4x4 that is a poinless figure really...its the torque that makes em good at what they do, especially when movin a 2 tonne truck and possibly 2.8 tonnes load behind it.

Apparently "Identify it" is not the correct answer!

Well spotted that man :lol: :lol: ...but does that carry over to the next vehicle and so on, when the car has died and has been reprocessed into something else???
