Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
BASIS OF PRESENTATION	NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the presentation of the current period condensed financial statements. These interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 . Our interim period financial results for the three and nine month periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts presented and disclosed in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements . Significant estimates and assumptions in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements require the exercise of judgment and are used for, but not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, estimates of future cash flows and other assumptions associated with goodwill and long-lived asset impairment tests, determination of discount rates and other assumptions for pension and other postretirement benefit costs, warranty programs, income taxes and deferred tax valuation allowances, lease classification, contingencies and restructuring costs. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be different from these estimates. Our reporting period usually ends on the Sunday closest to the last day of the quarterly calendar period. The third quarters of 2016 and 2015 ended on October 2 and September 27, respectively. Our fiscal year ends on December 31, regardless of the day of the week on which December 31 falls. The weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding excludes the anti-dilutive effect of certain stock options since such options had an exercise price in excess of the monthly average market value of our common stock. The options excluded from diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015 , were as follows: Three months ended Nine months ended October 2, September 27, October 2, September 27, Options excluded 936,857 950,345 1,295,664 593,436 In 2016, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement with a third party financial institution to repurchase $500 million of our common stock under our previously announced share repurchase plans and received 4.7 million shares at an average purchase price of $105.50 per share.

The estimated $146 million of pension contributions for the full year include voluntary contributions of approximately $103 million . These contributions may be made from trusts or company funds either to increase pension assets or to make direct benefit payments to plan participants.

INCOME TAXES

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	NOTE 5. INCOME TAXES Our effective tax rate for the year is expected to approximate 25.5 percent , excluding any one-time items that may arise. Our tax rate is generally less than the 35 percent U.S. statutory income tax rate primarily due to lower tax rates on foreign income and the research tax credit. Our effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2016 , was 21.5 percent and 25.5 percent , respectively. Our effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2015 , was 30.1 percent and 28.7 percent , respectively. The tax rate for the nine months ended September 27, 2015, included an $18 million discrete tax benefit to reflect the release of reserves for uncertain tax positions related to a favorable federal audit settlement. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2016, versus the comparable periods in 2015 was primarily due to favorable changes in the jurisdictional mix of pre-tax income. It is reasonably possible that our existing liabilities for uncertain tax benefits may decrease in an amount ranging from $20 million to $26 million within the next 12 months for U.S. and non-U.S. audits that are in progress.

We do not currently have any Level 3 securities and there were no transfers between Level 2 or 3 during the first nine months of 2016 or for the year ended December 31, 2015. A description of the valuation techniques and inputs used for our Level 2 fair value measures was as follows: • Bank debentures — These investments provide us with a contractual rate of return and generally range in maturity from three months to one year . The counter-parties to these investments are reputable financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings. Since these instruments are not tradable and must be settled directly by us with the respective financial institution, our fair value measure is the financial institutions’ month-end statement. • Debt mutual funds — The fair value measure for these investments is the daily net asset value published on a regulated governmental website. Daily quoted prices are available from the issuing brokerage and are used on a test basis to corroborate this Level 2 input. • Equity mutual funds — The fair value measure for these investments is the net asset value published by the issuing brokerage. Daily quoted prices are available from reputable third party pricing services and are used on a test basis to corroborate this Level 2 input measure. • Government debt securities-non-U.S. — The fair value measure for these securities is broker quotes received from reputable firms. These securities are infrequently traded on a national stock exchange and these values are used on a test basis to corroborate our Level 2 input measure. The proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities and gross realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities were as follows: Three months ended Nine months ended In millions October 2, September 27, October 2, September 27, Proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities $ 54 $ 73 $ 291 $ 228 Gross realized gains from the sale of marketable securities (1) — — — 1 ____________________________________ (1) Gross realized losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities were immaterial.

The program will facilitate the private placement of unsecured short-term debt through third party brokers.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES We are subject to numerous lawsuits and claims arising out of the ordinary course of our business, including actions related to product liability; personal injury; the use and performance of our products; warranty matters; patent, trademark or other intellectual property infringement; contractual liability; the conduct of our business; tax reporting in foreign jurisdictions; distributor termination; workplace safety; and environmental matters. We also have been identified as a potentially responsible party at multiple waste disposal sites under U.S. federal and related state environmental statutes and regulations and may have joint and several liability for any investigation and remediation costs incurred with respect to such sites. We have denied liability with respect to many of these lawsuits, claims and proceedings and are vigorously defending such lawsuits, claims and proceedings. We carry various forms of commercial, property and casualty, product liability and other forms of insurance; however, such insurance may not be applicable or adequate to cover the costs associated with a judgment against us with respect to these lawsuits, claims and proceedings. We do not believe that these lawsuits are material individually or in the aggregate. While we believe we have also established adequate accruals for our expected future liability with respect to pending lawsuits, claims and proceedings, where the nature and extent of any such liability can be reasonably estimated based upon then presently available information, there can be no assurance that the final resolution of any existing or future lawsuits, claims or proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. We conduct significant business operations in Brazil that are subject to the Brazilian federal, state and local labor, social security, tax and customs laws. While we believe we comply with such laws, they are complex, subject to varying interpretations and we are often engaged in litigation regarding the application of these laws to particular circumstances. Loss Contingency Engine systems sold in the U.S. must be certified to comply with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and California Air Resources Board (CARB) emission standards. EPA and CARB regulations require that in-use testing be performed on vehicles by the emission certificate holder and reported to the EPA and CARB in order to ensure ongoing compliance with these emission standards. We are the holder of this emission certificate for our engines, including engines installed in certain vehicles with one customer on which we did not also manufacture or sell the emission aftertreatment system. During 2015, a quality issue in certain of these third party aftertreatment systems caused some of our inter-related engines to fail in-use emission testing. In the fourth quarter of 2015, the vehicle manufacturer made a request that we assist in the design and bear the financial cost of a field campaign (Campaign) to address the technical issue purportedly causing some vehicles to fail the in-use testing. While we are not responsible for the warranty issues related to a component that we did not manufacture or sell, as the emission compliance certificate holder, we are responsible for proposing a remedy to the EPA and CARB. As a result, we have proposed actions to the agencies that we believe will address the emission failures. As the certificate holder, we expect to participate in the cost of the proposed voluntary Campaign and recorded a charge of $60 million in 2015. The Campaign design was finalized with our OEM customer, reviewed with the EPA and submitted for final approval in the second quarter of 2016, and we recorded an additional accrual of $39 million . We have concluded based upon additional in-use emission testing performed in the third quarter of 2016, that the Campaign should be expanded to include a larger population of vehicles manufactured by this one OEM. As a result, we recorded an additional accrual of $99 million in the third quarter to reflect the estimated cost of our participation in the expanded Campaign. We continue to work with our OEM customer to resolve the allocation of costs for the Campaign, including pending litigation between the parties. The Campaign is not expected to be completed for some time and our final cost could differ from the amount we have recorded. We do not currently expect any fines or penalties from the EPA or CARB related to this matter. Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Guarantees and Commitments From time to time we enter into guarantee arrangements, including guarantees of non-U.S. distributor financings, residual value guarantees on equipment under operating leases and other miscellaneous guarantees of joint ventures or third-party obligations. At October 2, 2016, the maximum potential loss related to these guarantees was $24 million . We have arrangements with certain suppliers that require us to purchase minimum volumes or be subject to monetary penalties. At October 2, 2016, if we were to stop purchasing from each of these suppliers, the aggregate amount of the penalty would be approximately $108 million , of which $55 million relates to a contract with a components supplier that extends to 2018. Most of these arrangements enable us to secure critical components. We do not currently anticipate paying any penalties under these contracts. We enter into physical forward contracts with suppliers of platinum, palladium and copper to purchase minimum volumes of the commodities at contractually stated prices for various periods, not to exceed two years. At October 2, 2016, the total commitments under these contracts were $27 million . These arrangements enable us to fix the prices of these commodities, which otherwise are subject to market volatility. We have guarantees with certain customers that require us to satisfactorily honor contractual or regulatory obligations, or compensate for monetary losses related to nonperformance. These performance bonds and other performance-related guarantees were $79 million at October 2, 2016 . Indemnifications Periodically, we enter into various contractual arrangements where we agree to indemnify a third-party against certain types of losses. Common types of indemnities include: • product liability and license, patent or trademark indemnifications; • asset sale agreements where we agree to indemnify the purchaser against future environmental exposures related to the asset sold; and • any contractual agreement where we agree to indemnify the counter-party for losses suffered as a result of a misrepresentation in the contract. We regularly evaluate the probability of having to incur costs associated with these indemnities and accrue for expected losses that are probable. Because the indemnifications are not related to specified known liabilities and due to their uncertain nature, we are unable to estimate the maximum amount of the potential loss associated with these indemnifications.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]
Restructuring and Related Activities Disclosure [Text Block]	NOTE 12. RESTRUCTURING ACTIONS AND OTHER CHARGES We executed restructuring actions primarily in the form of professional voluntary and involuntary employee separation programs in the fourth quarter of 2015. These actions were in response to the continued deterioration in our global markets in the second half of 2015, as well as expected reductions in orders in most U.S. and global markets in 2016. We reduced our worldwide workforce by approximately 1,900 employees , including approximately 370 employees accepting voluntary retirement packages with the remainder of the reductions being involuntary. We incurred a charge of $90 million in the fourth quarter of 2015, of which $86 million related to severance costs for both voluntary and involuntary terminations and $4 million for asset impairments and other charges. Employee termination and severance costs were recorded based on approved plans developed by the businesses and corporate management which specified positions to be eliminated, benefits to be paid under existing severance plans or statutory requirements and the expected timetable for completion of the plan. Estimates of restructuring costs and benefits were made based on information available at the time charges were recorded. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved, actual amounts paid for such activities may differ from amounts initially recorded and we may need to revise previous estimates. Restructuring actions and other charges were included in each segment in our operating results as follows: In millions Year ended December 31, 2015 (1) Power Systems 26 Distribution 23 Engine 17 Components 13 Non-segment 11 Restructuring actions and other charges $ 90 ____________________________________________________ (1) Restructuring actions and other charges by segment were re-allocated in conjunction with our segment realignment.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
OPERATING SEGMENTS	NOTE 13. OPERATING SEGMENTS Operating segments under GAAP are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our CODM is the Chief Operating Officer. We use segment EBIT (defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes and noncontrolling interests) as a primary basis for the CODM to evaluate the performance of each of our operating segments. Segment amounts exclude certain expenses not specifically identifiable to segments. As previously announced, beginning with the second quarter of 2016, we realigned certain of our reportable segments to be consistent with changes to our organizational structure and how the CODM monitors the performance of our segments. We reorganized our business to combine our Power Generation segment and our high-horsepower engine business to create the new Power Systems segment. Our reportable operating segments consist of Engine, Distribution, Components and Power Systems. We began to report results for our new reporting structure in the second quarter of 2016 and also reflected this change for historical periods. We allocate certain common costs and expenses, primarily corporate functions, among segments. These include certain costs and expenses of shared services, such as information technology, human resources, legal, finance and supply chain management. In addition to the reorganization noted above, we reevaluated the allocation of these costs, considering the new segment structure created in April 2016 and adjusted our allocation methodology accordingly. The revised methodology, which is based on a combination of relative segment sales and relative service usage levels, is effective for the periods beginning after January 1, 2016 and resulted in the revision of our segment operating results, including segment EBIT, for all four segments for the first quarter of 2016 with a greater share of costs allocated to the Distribution and Components segments than in previous years. Prior periods were not revised for the new allocation methodology. These changes had no impact on our consolidated results. Our new reporting structure is organized according to the products and markets each segment serves . The Engine segment produces engines (15 liters and less in size) and associated parts for sale to customers in on-highway and various off-highway markets. Our engines are used in trucks of all sizes, buses and recreational vehicles, as well as in various industrial applications, including construction, agriculture, power generation systems and other off-highway applications. The Distribution segment includes wholly-owned and partially-owned distributorships engaged in wholesaling engines, generator sets and service parts, as well as performing service and repair activities on our products and maintaining relationships with various OEMs throughout the world. The Components segment sells filtration products, aftertreatment systems, turbochargers and fuel systems. The Power Systems segment is an integrated power provider, which designs, manufactures and sells engines (16 liters and larger) for industrial applications (including mining, oil and gas and marine), standby and prime power generator sets, alternators and other power components. The accounting policies of our operating segments are the same as those applied in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements . We prepared the financial results of our operating segments on a basis that is consistent with the manner in which we internally disaggregate financial information to assist in making internal operating decisions. As noted above, we allocate certain common costs and expenses, primarily corporate functions, among segments. We do not allocate debt-related items, actuarial gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, changes in cash surrender value of corporate owned life insurance or income taxes to individual segments. Segment EBIT may not be consistent with measures used by other companies. Summarized financial information regarding our reportable operating segments for the three and nine month periods is shown in the table below: In millions Engine Distribution Components Power Systems Non-segment Items (1) Total Three months ended October 2, 2016 External sales $ 1,357 $ 1,497 $ 824 $ 509 $ — $ 4,187 Intersegment sales 502 7 319 347 (1,175 ) — Total sales 1,859 1,504 1,143 856 (1,175 ) 4,187 Depreciation and amortization (2) 42 28 32 29 — 131 Research, development and engineering expenses 56 3 54 44 — 157 Equity, royalty and interest income from investees 38 19 9 8 — 74 Loss contingency 99 (3) — — — — 99 Interest income 3 1 1 1 — 6 Segment EBIT 89 96 148 59 6 398 Three months ended September 27, 2015 External sales $ 1,627 $ 1,543 $ 891 $ 559 $ — $ 4,620 Intersegment sales 475 8 349 423 (1,255 ) — Total sales 2,102 1,551 1,240 982 (1,255 ) 4,620 Depreciation and amortization (2) 47 26 28 27 — 128 Research, development and engineering expenses 73 2 65 57 — 197 Equity, royalty and interest income from investees 33 19 9 17 — 78 Interest income 6 1 1 1 — 9 Segment EBIT 217 123 156 74 7 577 Nine months ended October 2, 2016 External sales $ 4,350 $ 4,493 $ 2,654 $ 1,509 $ — $ 13,006 Intersegment sales 1,487 18 1,005 1,076 (3,586 ) — Total sales 5,837 4,511 3,659 2,585 (3,586 ) 13,006 Depreciation and amortization (2) 121 86 95 87 — 389 Research, development and engineering expenses 166 10 161 141 — 478 Equity, royalty and interest income from investees 120 56 29 29 — 234 Loss contingency 138 (3) — — — — 138 Interest income 8 3 3 4 — 18 Segment EBIT 492 270 501 195 15 1,473 Nine months ended September 27, 2015 External sales $ 5,150 $ 4,499 $ 2,839 $ 1,856 $ — $ 14,344 Intersegment sales 1,422 23 1,097 1,225 (3,767 ) — Total sales 6,572 4,522 3,936 3,081 (3,767 ) 14,344 Depreciation and amortization (2) 140 78 82 81 — 381 Research, development and engineering expenses 195 8 183 172 — 558 Equity, royalty and interest income from investees 107 60 26 47 — 240 Interest income 10 3 3 4 — 20 Segment EBIT 695 324 574 302 (35 ) 1,860 ____________________________________ (1) Includes intersegment sales, intersegment profit in inventory eliminations and unallocated corporate expenses.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]
RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS	NOTE 14. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) amended its standards related to the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments. The new standard will make eight targeted changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The new standard will require adoption on a retrospective basis unless it is impracticable to apply, in which case it would be required to apply the amendments prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. We are in the process of evaluating the impact this standard will have on our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In June 2016, the FASB amended its standards related to the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments. This amendment introduces new guidance for accounting for credit losses on instruments including trade receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. The new rules are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are in the process of evaluating the impact the amendment will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements. In March 2016, the FASB amended its standards related to the accounting for stock compensation. This amendment addresses several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions that could impact us including, but not limited to, recognition of excess tax benefits or deficiencies in the income statement each period and classification of the excess tax benefits or deficiencies as operating activities in the cash flow statement. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the impact the amendment will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements. In February 2016, the FASB amended its standards related to the accounting for leases. Under the new standard, lessees will now be required to recognize substantially all leases on the balance sheet as both a right-of-use-asset and a liability. The standard will continue to have two types of leases for income statement recognition purposes: operating leases and finance leases. Operating leases will result in the recognition of a single lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term similar to the treatment for operating leases under today's standards. Finance leases will result in an accelerated expense similar to the accounting for capital leases under today's standards. The determination of a lease classification as operating or finance will be done in a manner very similar to today's standard. The new standard also contains amended guidance regarding the identification of embedded leases in service contracts and the identification of lease and non-lease components in an arrangement. The new standard is effective for us on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are still evaluating the impact the standard could have on our Consolidated Financial Statements ; however, while we have not yet quantified the amount, we do expect the standard will have a material impact on our Consolidated Balance Sheets due to the recognition of additional assets and liabilities for operating leases. In January 2016, the FASB amended its standards related to the accounting for certain financial instruments. This amendment addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure. The new rules will become effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the impact the amendment will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements . In May 2014, the FASB amended its standards related to revenue recognition. This amendment replaces all existing revenue recognition guidance and provides a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers. The standard contains principles that we will apply to determine the measurement of revenue and timing of when it is recognized. The underlying principle is that we will recognize revenue in a manner that depicts the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. Other major provisions include capitalization of certain contract costs, consideration of the time value of money in the transaction price and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. The amendment also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in those judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to fulfill a contract. The standard allows either full or modified retrospective adoption effective for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2018. We are in the process of evaluating the impact the amendment will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements. We expect to adopt the standard using the modified retrospective approach. While we have not yet completed our evaluation process, we have identified transactions where revenue recognition is currently limited to the amount of billings not contingent on our future performance. With the allocation provisions of the new model, we expect to accelerate the timing of revenue recognition for amounts related to satisfied performance obligations that would have been delayed under the current guidance. We do not expect the impact of this change to be material, but we are still quantifying the impact.

Subsequent Events	NOTE 15. SUBSEQUENT EVENT Acquisition of Cummins Pacific, LLC In October 2016, we acquired the remaining 50 percent interest in Cummins Pacific, LLC from the former distributor principal. The purchase consideration was $97 million , which included $17 million in cash and an additional $66 million paid to eliminate outstanding debt. The remaining $14 million will be paid in future periods, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. We will recognize a gain of $13 million on the fair value adjustment in the fourth quarter of 2016, resulting from this acquisition. This is the final acquisition of the plan we announced on September 17, 2013, to acquire the equity that we did not already own in most of our partially-owned U.S. and Canadian distributors.

[1]	The fair value of debt is derived from Level 2 inputs.
[2]	Loans payable consist primarily of notes payable to various domestic and international financial institutions. It is not practical to aggregate these notes and calculate a quarterly weighted-average interest rate.
[3]	In February 2016, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of up to $1.75 billion of unsecured short-term promissory notes ("commercial paper") pursuant to a commercial paper program. The program will facilitate the private placement of unsecured short-term debt through third party brokers. We intend to use the net proceeds from the commercial paper program for general corporate purposes.
[4]	The weighted average interest rate is inclusive of all brokerage fees.
