diesel

Hi everyone, I’m currently preparing my Grenadier for shipment from Surabaya, Indonesia, to Perth, Australia. As part of the process, everything needs to be super clean to meet Australian customs requirements. While working at a professional cleaning company, we discovered a part on the B57...

Does anyone know of a suitable replacement diesel fuel filler cap that is lockable?

I changed the air filter today as it wasn’t in stock when I changed the oil. I took a few pics so that you can see what’s under there. I also had a look at the intake to see how water tight it was. (Not very). I am not intending to wade with the car above the bonnet but I wanted to see where any...

Does anyone know 2022 Grenadier with B57 diesel how many turbo's?

While driving on a fire trail a stick or stone flew up a broke the elbow off the DPF. It relies on the chassis rail for protection- it took a 2wd tow truck 3 hours to get to me (fantastic NRMA service for any Australians). Had anyone else had this problem Ineos is very non-commital when asked

I need some advice in order to prepare my EU spec Diesel Grenadier MY23 for a long overland journey through some countries were somewhat bad Diesel fuel quality is available only. What I know so far, in some countries (Kenya, NAM, SA) the Diesel is already equipped with an additional Diesel...

Any idea when we can successfully import the diesels into North America, specifically Canada?

hi guys, has anyone taken a closer look at the turbochargers on diesel engines? Which manufacturer, etc.? Unfortunately, Ineos does not provide any details about the B57 installed...

Any of you diesel owners tried sport mode on the transmission? Flick the lever over, give it full throttle. Nothing much happens, apart from lots of noise and lots of gear changes....I won't try that again!

Interesting video on maintenance of diesel engines. Some common sense advice from an engine builder. View: https://youtu.be/kGN5iZ9zLTM

The Grenadier manual only refers to EN590 conform Diesel but I read that BMW has approved new and legacy engines (manufactured from March 2020) for the co2 neutral EN15940 paraffin fuel. Anyone know if this applies to Grenadier variants or not?

The Diesel water separator is standard on the AU Spec Diesel engines but optional in some other countries. The second fuel filter is not fitted to petrol motors. AU SPEC DIESEL – REAR FUEL FILTER IS THE ONE TO CHANGE This AU Spec Diesel is fitted with two fuel filters. The Diesel water...

As we have a B58 petrol fuel economy thread but no diesel B57, I would like to start this new thread. My typical usage is Highway 45% (100-120km/h), Country Roads 40% (50-80km/h) and City 15% (10-30km/h). So far, no off-road. I am driving with no major load and without a trailer.

I got the attached from Ineos the other week in reply to a query about the broken QR code service schedule link in the owners manual. One for the Library @Stu_Barnes Cheers Steve

In no hurry to buy at the moment , look forwards to seeing how the aftermarket progresses , my ex military defender is getting a bit creaky and the 6x6 8x8 and tracked stuff is now all sold off , so it certainly is time! Been following along the INEAOS trail for a couple of years and impressed...

Let's assume the engine has stopped. Tank is dry. Not a drop of diesel left inside. (Although the fuel gauge told you something else.) Had happen to me before. Thanks i always carry a spare canister with me. What is the correct procedure on the Grenadier after running out of diesel? 1) looking...

Just doing some calcs today ☹️. With the payload for the diesel Trialmaster stated in the manual at 689kg it is almost impossible to stay within limits if you want a roof rack, carry extra fuel and have a draw system, awning, 40 litres of water and fridge plus tools etc. and a vehicle that can...

I’d like to know if anyone with a diesel engine has seen the ESS Eco Start/Stop function triggered ? I’ve never seen it coming in action once… Thanks.

Has anyone else noticed how intrusive the regeneration process is on the diesel model? I have noticed that the car seems to perform a regen every 4/500 miles and the fans become so loud that it sounds like a road sweeper going past! Engine temperature goes up to 102-ish and like I say the fans...

Dear all, I've just noticed that you can order now a diesel water separator during the configuration (under the engine selection as extra) :love: PS: this is the case at least for the German configuration

This is a picture of the rear fuel filter on the INEOS Australian spec diesel motor. EDIT: the diesel fuel water separator is standard in some countries and optional in others. When choosing a diesel motor if the option costs $0 dollars it is standard, if you have to pay it is optional. A little...

I've followed already the other two very interesting "Diesel or Petrol for traveling" discussions but missed some other important questions: I'm currently in the same boat on deciding Diesel vs Petrol. I did yesterday a 3h testdrive with the Petrol and was overall super happy with the engine...

Thought I would share a conversation I had with my Brother in Law who is a diesel fitter and a lifetime of experience fitting, repairing and selling diesel engines. BIL: Reckon I drove an X5 with the B57 engine from Melbourne/ Sydney return towing a 3t boat. A bit higher torque rating though...

It looks like the inner filler neck on the diesel doesn't suit a high flow pump nozzle. Can anyone confirm? In Oz, some of the more remote unmanned fuel depots can be high flow only - they're setup for heavy transports. My current vehicle is like this and I need to use this funnel, which isnt ideal.

I guess the days of an oil bath air cleaner that could be maintained without any tools (well maybe a 10mm spanner if you wanted to take the top part off) have long gone; but the Grenadier airbox and fixings left be a bit underwhelmed. I started with unclipping the air sensor: And then 6mm...

Anyone with a diesel who can help? After turning off the car after a 30 minute drive. The engine cooling fan is super loud for 3/5 minutes after I turn off the ignition. Is it normally this loud? Many thanks

I thought I'd seen someone posing the question that without the engine variant, then we wouldn't know many details of the engine. Does knowing this detail off the CoC help? Engine code: B57D30. https://www.automaniac.org/engine/bmw/1701/bmw-2993cc-diesel-3.0-b57d30-24v-320hp

Pure speculation on why deliveries don't necessarily seem to be following order date pecking order, almost certainly because Ineos are trying to ship whatever vehicles they can complete against the backdrop of ongoing parts shortages: It's unlikely that it's something trivial like roof bars or...

Again just some interesting information for you all whilst we wait for our vehicles. This is just me here at Chester and may not represent the entire UK or other countries but thought you may be interested in the split. Total orders % Commercial 47% Passenger 53% Total Diesel/Petrol mix...

Ich finde das Thema eigentlich zu angstrengend, bei all den Experten, die so herumlaufen. Trotzdem finde ich dieses Video überzeugend. Es ist auf Deutschland zugeschnitten, deshalb hier:

Test Drive - Perth Australia Some driving on bitumen / tarmac / asphalt More nimble than expected Smooth ride
