it is weird as for north American market jeep started with the diesel or it will soon ,Nissan is putting a Cummins engine in there Titan ,Mercedes with there bluetech /urea technologies they say your exhaust emission is oxygen and water makes you want to drink it ,I know that now in Europe there is a tendency to go electricin city centers ,but whom to believe 10 years ago diesel in Europe was heaven and now it is the devil ,it sounds a conflict in interests lets shift the general population towards this and that depending on the political situation make you want to think only for your pocket and f the rest ....

no td5 in this part of the world I have another V8 in good condition but with 22ltr/100kms is a bit too much ,I am running on 33km2 was aiming at something in 10lts/100 I might be dreaming with the td5 but I have no experience in diesel td5 not 300tdi , as for the price of fuel it is not the issue ,it is all the extra weight that could be saved for long travels ,easier on the suspension, if I want a 1000km2 tank I need a 250ltrs tank more space more weight ,that is an extra 150kg that I can install a water tank instead ,I can loose weight but still :).

Hello Gents My V8 is dying and I am looking for a replacement engine and I am considering a td5 from the year 99 to 01 as I've read that they are the best , do you recommend a vendor that sells a TD5 front clip? I am considering this engine for fuel economies/long distance travel for expedition. thank you Naji M.
