Description of the engine device OM 651 1.8 and 2.2 liters

In 2008, Mercedes introduced a new generation of its 4-cylinder diesel units. Here is a cast-iron cylinder block, an aluminum 16-valve head with hydraulic lifters and a combined timing drive from a roller chain, several gears and balancer shafts. Simple versions of the engine are equipped with an IHI VV20 or IHI VV21 variable geometry turbine, and the most powerful modifications of this engine received a BorgWarner R2S bi-turbo system.

Engine number OM651 is located at the junction of the block with the pallet

Initially, powerful versions of the diesel were equipped with a Delphi fuel system with piezo injectors, which caused a lot of trouble, and since 2010 they began to be changed to electromagnetic ones. And since 2011, a revocable campaign began to replace injectors for previously produced units. Basic engine modifications have a Bosch fuel system and electromagnetic injectors.

Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of the OM 651 engine

Fuel system

Until 2011, the main versions were equipped with a Delphi fuel system with piezo injectors, which were prone to leaks, which often led to water hammer with piston burnout. There was even a revocable company to replace them with simpler electromagnetic ones. Engine modifications with a Bosch fuel system have no reliability problems.

Rotating the earbuds

Many owners of cars with such a diesel engine are faced with cranking liners. This is caused by dilution of superheated oil due to a clogged heat exchanger or a drop in lubrication pressure due to a failed variable displacement oil pump. You can insert a plug into the pump control valve and it will work at maximum.

Timing belt break

The combined timing drive here consists of a roller chain and several gears. Moreover, the chain can serve up to 300 thousand km, but its hydraulic tensioner is often rented much earlier, and replacing this tensioner is quite laborious and expensive.

Other breakdowns

A lot of trouble in this diesel engine is delivered by cracks in the plastic intake manifold, sticking to the head of the nozzle block and an oil cup forever flowing over the gasket. The weak points of the motor also include bi-turbo version turbines and a plastic pan.

The manufacturer claims the resource of the OM651 engine is 220 km, but it also serves 000 km.
