What engine is used in the BMW M6?
1 Answers
The BMW M6 is equipped with two engine models: the S63B44TU and the S85B50A. The S63B44TU engine delivers a maximum horsepower of 560 HP, a maximum power output of 412 kW, a maximum power speed range of 6000-7000 rpm, and a peak torque of 680 N·m. The S85B50A engine produces a maximum horsepower of 507 HP, a maximum power output of 373 kW, a maximum power speed of 7750 rpm, and a peak torque of 520 N·m. The BMW M6 engines are manufactured at the Munich plant, which is BMW's oldest factory, established in 1922. For daily maintenance of the BMW M6 engine, the following methods can be employed: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD-SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional equipment in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, choose CB-CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard being no lower than the manufacturer's specified requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and oil filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will degrade over time. After a certain mileage, its performance deteriorates, leading to various engine issues. To prevent malfunctions, change the oil periodically based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through, it may rupture the filter or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the relief valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication points, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. In small amounts, it remains suspended in the oil; in large amounts, it precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Periodically use a radiator cleaner to flush the radiator. Removing rust and scale deposits not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
