Nissan MR engine

The MR is a family of straight-four all-aluminium automobile engines with variable valve timing co-developed by Renault and Nissan. Renault calls it the M engine. Other noteworthy features of this engine family include acoustically equal runner lengths and a tumble control valve for the intake manifold, a "silent" timing chain, mirror finished crankshaft and camshaft journals, and offset cylinder placement in an attempt for increased efficiency.

The MR engine family features 'under stress' manufacture, meaning while the block is being bored, a torque plate puts the block under stress. The block becomes temporarily distorted until the head is torqued onto it, at which point the block is pulled into the correct shape.

Applications:

M9 diesel

The M9R and M9T are a family of straight-four diesel engines co-developed by Nissan and Renault; the latter call them the M engines. Following Renault's designation plan, the last letter (M9R resp. M9T) is to indicate the swept volume of 2.0 l resp. 2.3 litres. Despite the similar names, the diesel engines are only loosely related to the MR gasoline engines.

Features of the diesel engines include a cast-iron block, aluminium alloy cylinder head with double overhead camshafts, 16-valve layout and a bushes timing chain. The M9T is directed to heavier vehicles like the Nissan Navara or the Renault Master. It features a bore and stroke of85 mm × 101.3 mm (3.35 in × 3.99 in) for a total displacement of 2,299 cc (2.3 L), balancer shafts,[5] typical speeds are 3500 rpm for maximum power and 1250 rpm for maximum torque.

Low output versions of the M9R for the Renault Trafic II at 66 and 85 kW (90 and 116 PS; 89 and 114 hp) had been replaced by the Renault R engine with the introduction of the Trafic III, while versions starting from 96 kW (131 PS; 129 hp) include VNT chargers. The top version of the Navara utilizes the M9T with twin-turbochargers and 140 kW (190 PS; 188 hp). During production period engines had been updated up to Euro 6 (in early 2017).

SuccessorRenault R-Type engine

The M9R is available in the 150 PS (110 kW; 148 hp) tune in Nissan Qashqai, Nissan X-Trail, Renault Mégane, Renault Koleos and Renault Laguna models. In this trim the engine achieves maximum power at 4000 rpm and maximum torque of 340 N⋅m (251 lb⋅ft) at 2000 rpm. A 175 PS (129 kW; 173 hp) form with particulate filter is available in Renault Laguna and Nissan X-Trail models. A 180 PS (132 kW; 178 hp) variant is also available on the Laguna GT. In both engines maximum power is achieved at 3750 rpm and maximum torque is available from 1750 rpm.

In order to reduce vibrations, balance shafts are included in some versions of the engine. The 2.0 dCi engine in all its versions complies with the Euro 4 and 5 standards for exhaust emissions. The 150 PS (110 kW; 148 hp) New Mégane and New Laguna respectively emitted 144 g (5.1 oz)/km and 154 g (5.4 oz)/km of CO2 and the 129 kW (175 PS; 173 hp) version of New Laguna 2.0 dCi emits 159 g (5.6 oz)/km of CO2; they all comply with the Euro 5 standards for exhaust emissions.

In 2011 the 96 and 110 kW (131 and 150 PS; 129 and 148 hp) M9R engines has been updated with an optional package to lower exhaust emissions (Euro5) and fuel consumption. These engines are tagged "2.0 Energy dCi 130" resp. "2.0 Energy dCi 150", typically maximum power is available at 3750 rpm and maximum torque at a minimum of 1750 rpm. The package comprises:

  • Stop & Start
  • Active thermal management
  • Smart electrical management
  • Variable capacity oil pump

The CO2 values were thus reduced to 118 g (4.2 oz)/km for the Laguna both the 2.0 Energy dCi 130 and 2.0 Energy dCi 150.

The engine is fitted to the following vehicles:

The M9T is a version specifically designed for light commercial vehicles that is manufactured by Renault in Cléon. It was introduced on the Renault Master and its badge engineered derivatives, initially with power ranging from 75 kW (101 hp) to 110 kW (150 hp), and torque ratings starting at 185 N⋅m (136 lbf⋅ft) up to 350 N⋅m (260 lbf⋅ft).[6][7] Later, it was also introduced to the Nissan Navara and the Mercedes-Benz X-Class.[8][9] Nissan calls it the YS23 while in Mercedes-Benz vehicles, it is named the OM699. The engines with lower power ratings feature a single fixed geometry turbocharger,[10] while the more powerful versions have a variable-geometry turbocharger or twin-turbochargers.[11] The engines are compliant with the Euro 6 emission regulations.[12]
