Deutz TCD2012
A water-cooled family with both configurations fully listed: the L4 at 4.0 litres and 66–103 kW, and the L6 at 6.0 litres and 100–155 kW.
The TCD2012 is the water-cooled family whose listed table does the most work per line. The L4 2V is listed as a 4-cylinder engine of 101 × 126 mm and 4.0 litres, rated 66–103 kW across 2,000–2,400 rpm. The L6 2V is the 6-cylinder version at 6.0 litres, rated 100–155 kW. Two configurations, two displacements, two overlapping bands — which is why this family rewards buyers who specify by configuration first and power second.
The overlap between the bands (the L4 tops at 103 kW, the L6 starts at 100 kW) is not a contradiction; it reflects different rating points across each configuration's speed range. Near the overlap, the choice between L4 and L6 is an application decision — installation space, duty pattern and the specific rating point — and it should be made from the listed figures with the application stated, not from the family name. This page prints both tables as listed and leaves the final variant confirmation to the quote, as everywhere on this site.

Choosing L4 or L6
Fix the rating point first: the power you need at the speed your application runs. If that point sits comfortably inside one configuration's listed span, the choice is made. If it sits in the 100–103 kW overlap, send the application details (machine type, duty pattern, installation constraints) with the enquiry and have the configuration and its exact listed row confirmed in the quote. Do not order on the family name alone — 'TCD2012' spans 66 to 155 kW across two engines that share very little beyond the badge.
For replacements, bore and stroke (101 × 126 mm for the L4) and displacement are the fastest identity check against the installed engine, before variant codes are even discussed. Record them from the plate or the old engine and include them in the enquiry.
