I haven't read the entire article, but it seems based on that statement:Concerning the engine, some thoughts, published some hours ago:

I suppose it all depends on the type of plastic being used. Metals can be as prone to cracking and fatigue as certain plastics.Some good points were raised in the piece, but I am not worried either. I can appreciate the suggestion that BMW parts will not be as ubiquitous as Toyota stuff in the Outback and other remote places, and that plastic bits might not hold up as well as metal parts in the years to come, but again-I'm not worried whatsoever.

I've cut and pasted this from a B58 familiar mechanicI suppose it all depends on the type of plastic being used. Metals can be as prone to cracking and fatigue as certain plastics.
I have traveled twice from Spain to Senegal with my old landcruiser kzj95 and I never had any problem with the diesel. It was an indirect injection diesel engine of this more than 20 years ago. But I am sure that the injectors of the modern diesel include us the Ineos will not support this diesel.
If you want to tour the third world, I advise you to use gasoline, even in the most remote places in the world I have seen gasoline cyclone and it is always available.
That’s per gallon though yes? Not per Litre.In Tucson Arizona right now has us $2.89 and Diesel is $4.79. So 65% increase in cost plus DEF. Even if I had the choice I would probably go gas.
I read to the end - the final paragraph starts with:I haven't read the entire article, but it seems based on that statement:
The headline "The Problems With These Engines" is very close to clickbait in my opinion. Even if they concluded (I didn't read to the end after that) that there was no problem, that doesn't make the article much more serious.
So no reason to worry.
Yes, per American gallonThat’s per gallon though yes? Not per Litre.
So $1.27US a litre for diesel and half that for petrol - Americans have nothing to complain about.Yes, per American gallon
Yes, thank you. That's allright.I didn't worry, I posted the link for your information
True. But 60-65% more for diesel seems to be significantly higher than elsewhere.So $1.27US a litre for diesel and half that for petrol - Americans have nothing to complain about.
