GLE 350d vs GLE400d
Hi guys, does anyone know what is the difference between this two engines? 350d and 400d. It is same CC, but different PS. I read some articles on the web, and didnt find any reliable information about this. I bought one of the last 350d, and thought about some official chip tunning? It would be great to improve power at least at 330PS, just like 400d. Does anyone have some experiences? Is there any chip tuning that wont affect warranty?
I know that this engine wont be produced anymore and it will be replaced with 2litres engine 272PS+15PS.
In next two weeks I should take over the vehicle from official seller.

The main difference between the 350d and the 400d often boils down to tuning and engine mapping. While they share the same displacement, the 400d typically has a more aggressive ECU calibration that allows for higher power output, reaching around 330 PS. This difference can also stem from variations in turbocharger setup and fuel injection systems. Given your engineering background, you might find chip tuning a viable option to bridge that power gap. However, it's essential to ensure that any tuning is done by reputable specialists to maintain engine integrity and avoid unexpected issues down the road.
