F10 530d 245bhp vs 258bhp

[GolfR12]

Hi guys,

I am thinking of purchasing the F10 530d M Sport. I was wondering if anyone on here knew the key differences between the 2 engines available:

N57D30O0 2,993 cc (2.993 L; 182.6 cu in) 245 PS (180 kW; 242 hp)@4000, 540 N·m (400 lb·ft)@1750-3000 5000 2008

N57D30O1 2,993 cc (2.993 L; 182.6 cu in) 258 PS (190 kW; 254 hp)@4000, 560 N·m (410 lb·ft)@1750-3000 5400 2011

I know it is always best to go for the newer engine but what are the drawbacks of the older one in this scenario and would it be a deal breaker?

Many thanks

You can look up the engines on realoem website and then deduce if there are any physical differences or if it’s just mapping.

I thought they had slightly different turbos.
