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.

I would install a pulley next to the alternator,it will serve a dual purpose first you clear more space from coolant hose and second you will have more surface area in contact at your alternator pulley so you will not have slippage at a greater electrical load like winching lights etc -
