The BMW M47 was a four-cylinder inline diesel engine that BMW manufactured in variants from 1998 to 2007, with a related M47R made for the Rover Group. Over its life BMW gradually adopted high-pressure common-rail fuel injection. The original M47D20 had non-common-rail direct injection and a 1,951 cc block, and from 1998 it gave 100 kW in the 320d and 520d and 85 kW in the 318d. Every cylinder has one swirl and one tangential intake port to improve performance under different conditions. Rover Group and Steyr worked together to turn the engine around into a transverse M47R with common rail and different turbochargers for the Rover 75 and the Land Rover Freelander, and the Steyr plant in Austria built and supplied them.
