Deutz-Fahr 5D
2 models in this series
Deutz-Fahr 5D – 5080D and 5090.4D: mid-class tractors from Lauingen with 75 to 88 hp, three- and four-cylinder engines from 3,000 to 3,849 cc and 3,200 to 3,300 kg
The D-series was Deutz-Fahr's mid-class range and, like the rest of the group's line-up, was built at the Lauingen an der Donau plant. The 5080D and 5090.4D designations follow the Deutz-Fahr scheme: the number after the D marks the approximate horsepower class, while the .4 suffix on the 5090.4D indicates a four-cylinder engine as against the three-cylinder unit in the 5080D.

The register lists 2 variants with 75 to 88 hp from three- and four-cylinder engines of 3,000 to 3,849 cc displacement. Unladen weights fall between 3,200 and 3,300 kg, dimensions range from 3,997 to 4,257 mm in length, 1,982 to 2,005 mm in width and 2,485 to 2,590 mm in height.
The 5D range covered the mid-power segment through the 1990s and served as a versatile all-rounder for arable and grassland farms, competing directly with the mid-class models from Fendt, Massey Ferguson and Case IH. Switching between three- and four-cylinder engines within the same range allowed fine steps between power classes.
When buying used, check the clutch and gearbox synchro rings, as this range was often worked hard with a front loader in practice. Inspect the engine block for oil seepage at the head gaskets and confirm the hydraulic pump delivers adequate pressure. Rust tends to appear at the wings and footsteps first; parts are well supplied through the Deutz-Fahr network.
