'06 3510i - needs motor - doing my homework

[WadeC]

Youre meaning the cummins version - right? Yeah, it says liners, but I remember seeing in my searching - that supposedly Kukje - at some point did a revision to solid block - no liners. Guessing I wont be able to answer that for certain until I pull the head again and look.

Ill start doing some research on diesel shops and see if I find something anywhere near close.

Yes the Kukje engine doesn't come with cylinder liners. However they did left some material to run over-sized pistons.

Here is the PDF confirming that:

Good info! Thanks! So its bore it or sleeve it if its too bad, or new block. Good to know! Guessing they are only allowing for wear in a bore rather than scoring - as I dont see it being possible much damage could be removed at only .005" material removal.

Thanks again!
