IT_MAN Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 The best ang diesel..especially nowadays kasi yung torque nya pumapantay na din sa Gas. Especially for turbocharged engines.. Quote Link to comment
c32 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Depends for me. For city driving and overtaking, I'd pick diesel because of the huge low end torque.But for highway and mountain passes, gas for me. Driving my Subaru on those roads puts a wide grin on my face. Quote Link to comment
RED2018 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Overall, both engines have their strong points and weakness. Generally, if you are going to keep your car for long runs go for the diesel as it proves to be more efficient on fuel cost and has a higher resale value. Do note however, that if damaged, the repairs of its engine could easily put a hole on your pocket. If you have plans to switch cars in a short-term period go for the gasoline variant as it is cheaper toown and maintain. If you are also aiming for speed on the highway, gas is the way to go.

sandy51 Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Diesel should be better with today's engine. Problem is that because of politics, diesel here is cheaper. And it is cheaper because of the lower quality. This gives an opportunity for kotong. Buti nga wala na but there was a time when Makati boys would station themselves sa may Kalayaan flyover sa C5 causing traffic sa Taguig and Pasig. Eh ang Makati lang is that portion sa flyover. Do we really think that Makati is so concerned about the polution in Taguig and Pasig? Quote Link to comment

idecris Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Diesel technology has come along way already. The current generation of diesels use common rail direct injection (high pressure) and variable geometry turbos, which have improved on simple direct injection, intercooler turbos. Diesel travels farther simply because it is denser offering more mass per volume. More combustible material per liter. Diesel is also cheaper. Diesel is also an oil which means your fuel is also a lubricant. Older high compression ratio engine have very strong blocks. Diesel engines are known to have useful lives well into 250,000 kms Diesel engines don't have spark plugs so you have no spark plug expenses. Diesel engine maintenance problems are myths, it's rarely the engine that has the problem. These are tough buggers. Sure older generations have "dirty" exhaust but new tech has improved emissions. The world runs on diesel more than you think. Power plants, trains, trucks, buses, ships, boats, even submarines run on diesels. Quote Link to comment
