[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 377586, member: 4527"] These diesel generation engines were designed for Euro diesel beginning year 2000, which is Euro3 with 350ppm of sulphur content or below. We have just switched to Euro2, with 500ppm of sulphur content, which was adopted in Europe back in 1996. Before Euro2M, we were using those with sulphur not exceeding 2000ppm :eek: 2000ppm to 500ppm is a big drop and we are not far away from 350ppm.. so I guess that's why BMW Malaysia dare to bring the diesel engine in. In Europe, Euro3 and Euro2 was 4 years apart, at the same rate, we should be getting Euro3 by 2013. Btw, Europe is on Euro5 diesel now at 10ppm sulphur content, they more going Euro6 soon, below 10ppm.
