I believe that I have a Volvo B6324S engine in my LR2. I want to confirm by checking a label on my vehicle but I can't find one anywhere. I checked all the tags under the hood (bonnet) as well as the markings I could read on the engine itself, but cannot find any model # for the engine.

Does anyone know where I should look?

 

I'll take a look when my wife gets home, but you should have a B6324S5. According to wiki that's the version used in all of the 3.2 LR2's...

According to this article, the -S5 version came in 2010. So I'm not sure. Please let me know if you find it. thx

Volvo 3.2 SI6 engine: B6324S | Oil Consumption

 

Why does it not surprise me that the service manual only tells where to find the engine id plate if you own a diesel model? Par for the British course, I guess.

 

I looked, didn't see a data plate but I didn't remove the splash guard underneath.

You could try calling the dealer and giving them your VIN?

 

Thanks for checking. All roads lead back to the dealer

I'm pretty confident that is the correct engine model #. It's useful to know as a keyword for searches to learn more about the engine. Here are a couple search results I found with the engine code:

Found it. It's a Volvo B6324S. The B6324S5 variant didn't come out until 2011. It's known as the Volvo SI6 series of engines (short inline 6 cylinder).

This label should have the information that you are looking for




I believe that the LR2 only came with the B6324S

But as other have pointed out Volvo did make changes to the motor
B6324S 2007-2010
B6324S2 2010-2010
B6324S4 2011-2012
B6324S5 2011--> End of life

Take care
