[QUOTE="ALBundy, post: 668060, member: 15"] Yes the catalytic converter is still there to convert harmful gases while the DPF has a different function which is to remove soot. So in general diesel cars sold by BMW in Malaysia are considered Euro3 standard. Our fuel standard is euro 2M, which has about 500ppm of sulphur content. Euro 3 is 350ppm. However with an ecu remap, lowered injector pressure and the removal of the DPF all the local diesel cars work without much problems. To me the best Diesel engine is the 3.0d. Have driven the 335d, performance wise not that much greater and it's not a frugal machine. The other favorite of mine is the 123d, fun and nippy. Cheers [/QUOTE]
