confirmed yung G Diesel (2.5 D4D) ay may hood scoop na rin. I saw it sa Megamall, nakadisplay.

Our jeepneys, trucks, buses, most of them use surplus Isuzu / Mitsu engines. (4BA1, 4DR5, etc..) They've been running around for decades. I guess that's enough proof that a diesel engine (Not sure with the modern ones) is, well, built to last a life time. hehe.

Modern diesels might ocasionally have their issues with low-quality diesel fuel, but it's due to the CRDi injections. Apart from that, a diesel still lasts longer than a comparable petrol engine, and nowadays even outperforming them...
