Welp . Here in the EU , the 2.0 diesel is the jack of all trades on the majority of the cars . It's small enough so it doesn't cost that much in tax and insurance , and it's powerful enough with good gas mileage . You can go even further with small french diesel engines like renault 1.5 dci or Peugeot 1.6 hdi that get like 55 mpg(yes US mpg not UK mpg)
1.9 tdi legendary, from 2002-2010 best models from VAG (skoda, audi, vw, seat) bkc, bxe code for engines, 1.9 the legenday 105hp, BEST, reliability and enough power.

@@Name-eg1uf Yes, all diesels can. The only thing that's different is that the oil is thicker in viscosity, so it needs to be heated to 160-180 degrees F to be the same viscosity as diesel.
I have a Hyundai Verna disel i totally love it .. have driven it's petrol varient too comparing to it . The diesel is wayy torquier accelerate faster since it has a heavy engine handles wayy better .. and gives awesome fuel economy too ✨
I drive diesel e39 530d for past 7 years and i love it.... It doesnt burn oil and it doesnt smoke like in ur clips.... Its stock car with all filters and im happy with it. If i wanted more power i can easly tune it for another 50-100hp while in meantime gas engines like to consume oil becouse they have worn out seals. Also its very hard and expensive to tune up petrol engines, since they dont have forced induction. Im talking about bmw e39, have that in mind.....
Glad you made this video. I've been debating about getting a turbodiesel due to the increased efficiency of the engines. MKIV ALH Jetta specifically for me.
If youre going for speed dont go with the jetta. Ive known 2 people with them and they are heavy and slow. Very slow. If you want one just because most definitely go for it. Im not hating.
@@Somepepperwiththatsalt That's fair, but I've always preferred torque over horsepower. That being said, I know of a couple companies (Malone, Kerma) that can sort of help it be a bit faster. Either that, or maybe I'll inherit my dad's Ram W350.
I wonder if you could make a high-reving Diesel engine to get high levels of horsepower for sports cars, or if you could add a gearbox to existing Diesel engines to convert the low revs, high torque, lower HP into high revs, lower torque, but higher HP...

Petrol for my purposes is just better. It’s a case of when you blow a petrol motor it just kinda hisses and steams occasionally throwing pistons and various debris, however desil engines kinda make a big fireball and break everything, now I replace the motor in my car fairly often as I use it on track and as a result often go over red line... I have no issue with this as my car has had so many engines it’s kinda silly so it’s at a point where swapping it out isn’t an issue, however if I used desil motors I’d have to buy a new car every few months. Yes I know that the solution is to stop over revving my car, quite honestly I do not care
Disel isnt less refined its just a longer chain hydrcarbon which means it requires more energy to combust but also releases more energy. Crude oil refinery used fractional distillation where it is heated in a huge tank and the differnt compounds ( differnt length hydrocarbons) boil and then cool down and settle in sections as petrol (gasoline) is more volatile it cools after dewsel alowing them to be separated not because the is more pure
Most of my cars ran on liquid propane gas. Here it is less than half the cost of petrol. LPG cars been on the road here forever, like at least 1960. And they have a switch so you can drive on petrol when the LPG runs out, so you can go get a refill 😁
Well in india we use CNG (compressed natural gas) for petrol cars yes there is a cost it the CNG kit price and the little weight added by it but 20 percent more mileage 10 decrease in power doesn't hurt considering the cost
I had a 2015 Audi Q5 TDI prior to VAG getting busted by the EPA for cheating on their emissions testing. When it was time to turn in that lease in 2018, their investigations and lawsuits were finally over. Of all the mothballed TDIs that were held on dealership lots nationwide, I was able to secure a 2015 Q7 TDI with 64 miles on the clock, that had never been sold. I got a huge discount on it, got the bigger capacity I wanted, over the Q5, and got a full warranty and Audicare maintenance program starting in August 2018. I love my TDI, as well as the ownership experience of Audis. The "TDI fix" was implemented, to satisfy the EPA terms of their lawsuit, and I get a solid vehicle that should last me a few hundred thousand miles, with proper care & maintenance. :-)
Absolutely. My Q7TDI is a 3.0 liter V6 turbo diesel. Only 240HP, but 420 ft/lbs of torque. I had a S5 with a 3.0 liter V6 gas engine, was 351 HP and 369ft/lbs. Exact same displacement engines, both Audi engines, vastly different performance characteristics.

I've always wondered why diesel is often as expensive or more than gas (at the pump) even though it's not as refined as gas.......at least here in Washington State......
Simply because it's not as profitable for US refineries to sell the diesel because there isn't the demand. Therefore they sell it at a higher cost in order to make it worth it, so to speak.

I realized that the secret to making a million is saving for a better investment. I always tell myself you don't need that new Maserati or that vacation just yet.

9:50 actually it is cheaper to maintain a electric in the long run as it is simple in it's core in terms of design when compared Petrol and Diesel which have a lot of parts doing different things just to keep the engine running .

Mercedes used a diesel in there slk i think it was Germany in europe puts a diesel in it all There is the very popular 2000s bmw diesels as the most reliable thing from a 2000s bmw is a diesel And then there is the 95 mpg audi A2 And audi does diesel V6s and V12s Almost making a V12 TDI R8
Jk tho I'm a gas head I'm just playin guys love you guys anything with some sort of engine . But let find a way to burn petrol but balance it out like by having more forest and new ways of feeding our selves that's the main problem
Diesel Gate ruined diesels here in the States, and as for the future, we can’t have fun gas-powered weekend sports cars unless we daily drive an electric one. That should help keep our beloved ICEs around a little bit longer.
Like the TDI version of the Audi RSQ8, only available in EU. 4 liter twin turbo V8 TDI. At one point (2009) they made a 6 liter W12 TDI Q7. That would be an amazing engine to have.
Diesel was/is not intended for anything except for work. All of the things that are done with these vehicles as personal toys are not what they were built for originally. So, it isn't fair to state that they are bad because they are used outside the main purpose that they were created for.
Hate to break it to you, but that's what basically every motor and engine ever designed was for. Do you think they were inventing better windmills in the 1500s because they wanted to win drag races?
@@DumbAngelDragon So, you would believe in using a chain saw to make toothpicks? That is basiacally what I meant. It isn't that I want to call you an A-whole, but you are acting like the other people that want to be sarcastic before fully understanding what someone is actually talking about.
@@beauxr.benoit1374 No, I fully understood what you meant. A gas engine was built to do work- not to build power. In the 1900s the steam engine was the workhorse engine, both common internal combustion engines were "only meant to do light work" like run a pump where it was impractical to use a boiler. We tuned gas engines, and you can absolutely tune diesel engines, and you can tune electric motors. None of those things were "intended" for being used in racing, they were only intended to move a horseless carriage. You can't make the argument that diesel is better suited for tractors and not for cars when the reality is that it's simply not true. Especially since if things had been marginally different in the 1920s, ALL cars would be diesel because they are far more efficient and simple to build.
Nah there is more to go wrong in modern diesel engines and costly. Most are turbos so that injection or rails egr dpf blah blah blah I am actually moving back to petrol
Why you had to turn it so fcking confusing, if you wanted to make people headhurt, you should have said gas oil and gasoline, why didn't you leave it like petrol and diesel???
Diesel is slow like could get more power out of an Diesel engine buy swapping fuel from diesel to propane and water injection diesel is known for having alot of torque and not having similar horsepower to match that torque so itz really slow 😏but they can be faster if you get the Horsepower up to 1000 or higher 🤷🏼

I want petrol, I need petrol, I LOVE PETROL!
1:37 😂
For a guy that seems to know a lot about engines he can't seem to mispronounce the term RPM
IT IS RPM NOT RPM'S
Diesel actually cleaner. Biased info
For British & Indian
Gas mean Petrol
Jk tho I'm a gas head I'm just playin guys love you guys anything with some sort of engine . But let find a way to burn petrol but balance it out like by having more forest and new ways of feeding our selves that's the main problem
didnt have to do overwatch like that
How about comparing burning Coal to Diesel? Because that is what EVs do. They get their power from the Grid, this burns Coal for power.
Diesel Gate ruined diesels here in the States, and as for the future, we can’t have fun gas-powered weekend sports cars unless we daily drive an electric one. That should help keep our beloved ICEs around a little bit longer.
Like the TDI version of the Audi RSQ8, only available in EU. 4 liter twin turbo V8 TDI. At one point (2009) they made a 6 liter W12 TDI Q7. That would be an amazing engine to have.
@@davidmontroy3408 Agreed.
So he’s saying we should just get electric cars
No lol not the overwatch
Thinking about 2nd electric car or pickup but bet your a** I'm keeping my big block!
Diesel was/is not intended for anything except for work. All of the things that are done with these vehicles as personal toys are not what they were built for originally. So, it isn't fair to state that they are bad because they are used outside the main purpose that they were created for.
Hate to break it to you, but that's what basically every motor and engine ever designed was for. Do you think they were inventing better windmills in the 1500s because they wanted to win drag races?
@@DumbAngelDragon So, you would believe in using a chain saw to make toothpicks? That is basiacally what I meant. It isn't that I want to call you an A-whole, but you are acting like the other people that want to be sarcastic before fully understanding what someone is actually talking about.
@@beauxr.benoit1374 No, I fully understood what you meant. A gas engine was built to do work- not to build power. In the 1900s the steam engine was the workhorse engine, both common internal combustion engines were "only meant to do light work" like run a pump where it was impractical to use a boiler.
We tuned gas engines, and you can absolutely tune diesel engines, and you can tune electric motors. None of those things were "intended" for being used in racing, they were only intended to move a horseless carriage.
You can't make the argument that diesel is better suited for tractors and not for cars when the reality is that it's simply not true. Especially since if things had been marginally different in the 1920s, ALL cars would be diesel because they are far more efficient and simple to build.
@@DumbAngelDragon Thank you for the info and the mature converstion.
and then there's SKYACTIV-X...
I have good idea why don't you make a video of the cheapest diesel cars
Because a 2003 Beetle is not something anyone actually wants.
Best value, too!
The first gen Audi A2 is the prius of europe
DIESEL IS KING
This video makes me want to cut my DEF system off my truck
@@ReidMYT laughs in preemission
Nah there is more to go wrong in modern diesel engines and costly. Most are turbos so that injection or rails egr dpf blah blah blah I am actually moving back to petrol
I don't understand why Americans call a liquid gas
Gas is shorten name for gasoline.
Why you had to turn it so fcking confusing, if you wanted to make people headhurt, you should have said gas oil and gasoline, why didn't you leave it like petrol and diesel???
Diesel is slow like could get more power out of an Diesel engine buy swapping fuel from diesel to propane and water injection diesel is known for having alot of torque and not having similar horsepower to match that torque so itz really slow 😏but they can be faster if you get the Horsepower up to 1000 or higher 🤷🏼
Got the like for the DBZ reference. 9,000!!??? 😆
