diesel jimny

hi all do Suzuki make a diesel jimny in the uk
and fit so what engine do they put in it

Not that im awere of but the engine thay do use is a renault one its the 1.5dci i think

no they do not and they have dropped the diesel one in europe to i belive , petrol is better any way , if you want to run a diesel car you need to be doing a min of 15,000 miles a year now

cant knock the dci engine!
ive got a 1.9 DCI megane, only had to replace 3 crankshaft pulleys, a turbo and the clutch!

the 1.5s are meant to be alot better than the 1.9!

Hit 60mpg at one stage on a run!

A modern diesel won't be any better than a petrol in deep water! There's a lot more tech on then than the old ones.

don't agree with that a petrol will suffer very quickly with a little water around the plugs and causes a misfire you don't get this with a diesel as no plugs so its down to other electric which a modern petrol and diesel have about the same amount and this is easier to protect so lose the plugs and its a lot easier to drive in water
only problem with my jimny in the water is the plugs getting wet as were the plugs are just fill up and it has no were to go

a 15 diesel in a jimny should be good and get a good mpg
the 1.3 diesel swift is very quick

So true.

Modern diesel injectors are electronically controlled. They would be just as useless in water.

What you want is a proper diesel engine, like a Peugeot XUD9

Nice if it's anything like the 4JG2 it'll be bomb proof.
