MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 The choice of having a petrol or diesel engine car really depends on the type of journeys & mileage you anticipate driving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I had my MK3 Mondeo ST TDCi for around 8 years / 40,000 miles with no DMF issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Diesel engines, especially with a DPF, need regular high engine revolution, longish mileage driving to avoid issues & even without a DPF multiple regular short journeys are not good for the engine.

dsayer Posted November 9, 2015 Author Share Posted November 9, 2015 So a petrol one would be better for the miles I do then I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 It's the type of driving & individual journey distance that matters most A diesel with or without a DPF can be fine - if it's driven as designed & intended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsayer Posted November 9, 2015 Author Share Posted November 9, 2015 Ok thanks for that I will bear that in mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
