OM6133.2L Diesel
The OM613 is the inline-6 common-rail diesel produced from 1999 to 2003, fitted exclusively to the W210 E320 CDI and W220 S320 CDI. With 197 hp and 470 Nm of torque, it was a strong performer in its day, but suffers the typical early-CDI swirl flap and injector seat leak issues that plague its OM611/OM612 family members.
