2013 X5 35d - Question

[BMW603]

I just bought a new 35d - I thought I read someplace it had twin turbo-- when I look at the engine cover-- although pretty-- doesn't look like the cars 335 as example-- with TWIN POWER etc labeled on the engine cover..

is my 2013 35d twin power turbo>? It does state this on the window sticker..

yeah I know dumb question.. I did search tho =)

They do write twin power turbo on the hood, even though the car doesn't have twin turbos. Instead, BMW implemented a twin scroll turbo, meaning that it has two phases: one for lower RPM and one for higher RPM. It should almost eliminate turbo lag.

Dude, he's asking about the diesel. There is no twin scroll and there is no writing on the engine cover. It's not the N55, it's the M57.

Yeah.. so TY for the replies.. was curious.. the twin power turbo is displayed on the window sticker- but not on the engine covers that Ive seen in say a 335 etc. really but for the 35d on the side.. it doesn't say diesel or turbo =)
