M54 ENGINE
MECHANICAL CHANGES
NON RETURN FUEL RAIL SYSTEM
The M54 engine with MS 43.0 control uses the non return fuel rail system introduced on
the M62 TU engine. The system meets running loss compliance without the use of the 3/2-
way solenoid valve currently used on the M52 TU engine.
The regulated fuel supply is controlled by
the fuel pressure regulator integrated in
the fuel filter. The fuel return line is also
located on the filter.
The M54 engine uses an Electronic Controlled
Throttle Valve (EDK) for intake air control. The
idle control valve and turbulence function of the
intake manifold carries over from the M52 TU
engine.

ELECTRONIC THROTTLE SYSTEM - EML
The M54 engine with MS 43 engine control uses an electronic throttle control system
adopted from the ME 7.2 system on the M62 engine. The system incorporates an electric
throttle valve (EDK) and pedal position sensor (PWG) for engine power control.
The MS 43 control module monitors the PWG input and activates the EDK motor based on
the programmed maps for throttle control. The MS 43 module self checks the activation of
the EDK via feedback potentiometers motor on the EDK motor.
Additional functions of the EML system include:
• Cruise control function
• DSC throttle interventions
• Maximum engine and road speed control
