That was his too as well.Isn’t there already a thread about diesel vehicles?
I think he is referrng to this.No link.
No explanation.
Random late night cobblers.
I mentioned this https://epsrc.ukri.org/newsevents/c...rmful-diesel-engine-nitrogen-oxide-emissions/ in your other Diesel thread. Perhaps that's why you started a new thread so you hoped it would remain unnoticed.yup 90% of jag vehicles run on that awful diesel which good folk are stopping buying so sales are diving, good oh.
@nilagin jobs vs lives are you for real?

It would be interesting to see a comparison between a modern (2015+) diesel and an older, 10 yrs plus petrol car as far as emmisions and the nasty NOx.
I seem to remember reading somewhere that the older petrol engine was dirtier than a modern diesel but can't remember where now.
That's the one I think.It was emission analytics doing a test I think. It was only one car of each type. Think the petrol was also a VAG so it would never have met the standard anyway. They only do the cheat when the bonnet is up and other criteria was met from what I remember.
All UK car sales are declining at present, petrol or diesel, it just appears that recently a huge part of JLR's sales have been diesel. It is only in recent years that JLR started building their own diesel engines again and stopped using Ford units.It's a shame about JLR but diesel is dead. Sales are falling everywhere.
Most 10 yrs plus petrol engines weren't direct injection, their Nox emissions will be low. Modern direct injection petrol engines are now being fitted with GPF's.It would be interesting to see a comparison between a modern (2015+) diesel and an older, 10 yrs plus petrol car as far as emmisions and the nasty NOx.

The box from a direct injection petrol engine is nowhere near the levels produced by a diesel engine. Plus manufacturers are also incorporating additional pfi systems to the inlet manifolds electric turbos, cylinder deactivation and mild hybrid alternator/electric motor systems to bring the nox and co2 levels down even further.It's why I don't want a DI petrol. They'll be the next diesel.
I'm also wondering what adblue does to air quality. It might reduce one lot of nasties just to increase another lot.

What would you glass as an unnecessary car journey?I think your statement would carry more weight if you referred to HGV;s, Buses, old black cabs, aircraft and cargo ships before cheering and supporting the loss of more industry!
I say clear up the biggest polluters first to make a huge difference instead of the little mans contribution Joe public has always been the easy target.
we could always try reducing holdups and make traffic flow instead of making up new traffic schemes that cause the congestion.
congestion = pollution
Also, how many unnecessary car journeys would your average Joe make if the tax was on fuel instead of a road tax?
You don’t think trucks have had any emission changes then? How about all the Euro 123456 etc engines, how about Adblue? There is also lots of work going on to make aircraft engines cleaner and more efficient, granted, mostly to make more money. But that’s the name of the game. Maybe holidays are unnecessary in any case.I would call an unnecessary journey one could easily walk to. ie: school run, paper shop out for a bimble.
I don't think I suggested putting trucks & aircraft out of business at a cost to employment!
the forms of transport I suggested just happen to be some of the biggest polluters on the planet and as far as I know they are unregulated and making very little effort (if any) to cleaning their act up.
How about all the 10 yr old+ trucks, taxis, aircraft etc that were made before Euro encap engines were even thought of!You don’t think trucks have had any emission changes then?

True, but if they all need replacing then costs will be sky high, how about all the old cars that are tax exempt? I'm not disagreeing that something needs doing, all I am saying is that there is no simple way of achieving it.How about all the 10 yr old+ trucks, taxis, aircraft etc that were made before Euro encap engines were even thought of!
JLR are at least owned by Tata who have deep pockets.
JLR need to work on reliability as well. They're usually at the bottom of the reliability tables.
Heavy lardy vehicles that need dirty diesels to get them from a to b it's time this mode of transport was shuffled off
I'm sure most folk agree but there's no point in knee-jerk blanket measures, there just isn't anything else ready to replace them yet, the infrastructure for electric is decades away from being anywhere near sufficient.
Is that so? Odd that they announced last year that by 2020 they will have a hybrid or electric powertrain option for every model in their line up.They have also not developed hybrid solutions like other major car companies.
I wouldn't be surprised if they will be in trouble in 12 months.
