Alternator




Due to the high power capacity of 180 A, the alternator is cooled by the engine's cooling system to enhance heat dissipation. The brushless Bosch alternator is installed in an aluminum housing which is mounted to the engine block. The exterior alternator walls are surrounded with circulated engine coolant. The function and design of the alternator is the same as in the M62, with only minor modifications. The BSD interface (bit-serial data inter-face) for the ECM is new.
