N62 Engine
Map-controlled Thermostat
The map-controlled thermostat allows the engine to be cooled relevant to operating con-
ditions. This reduces fuel consumption by approximately 1-6%. The electrical connections,
the design and the map-controlled thermostat response have been enhanced. The map-
controlled thermostat function is the same as previous engines (M62).
Cooling Module
The cooling module contains the following main cooling system components:
• Cooling radiator
• Air conditioning condenser
• Transmission oil/water heat exchanger
• Hydraulic fluid radiator
• Engine oil radiator
• Main electric fan
• Fan shroud for viscous coupling fan
All the components (with the exception of the transmission oil radiator) can be removed for
repairs without disassembling any other coolant circuit. All connections have been fitted
with the quick-release coupling which are used in current models.
