I had lot of pleasure out of my 1st Short Wheel base DID, the second one, with the common rale, feel if it does not have the power of the direct injection one!!! May be it is my imagination?

Re: My two Shorty,s
I have heard from a few owners that say the same thing about the power of the new versus the old. I wonder why?

Re: My two Shorty,s
I just love those shorties...
Kurt, I think Peterpot has dug real deep into this phenomenon and I don't want to look dumb after a few posts from him.
But here is my take on it:
The 121kw commonrail motor was an interm solution to meet environmental demands, while they were "prepping" the 140kw motor. To my knowledge is the turbo most likely the cause. The later motor has the variable vane job, which has more boost/grunt.

I copied this out of Wikedpedia : 2006 to 2008 The engines were upgraded with the 3.2 L diesel gaining Common Rail technology, a DPF for cleaner emissions and producing 125 kW (167 hp/170 PS) and the 3.8 L V6 gaining MIVEC variable valve timing to boost power to 184 kW (247 hp/250 PS). Both engines meet new Euro IV emissions standards. The 3.0 L V6 is retained for the Japanese and GCC markets.
From 2009, the 3.0L V6 engine was dropped in the GCC markets, and was replaced by a 3.5L V6 engine, rated for 141 kW (189 hp/192 ps) and 306 Nm torque. Further enhancements to the 3.2L Turbo Diesel in the 2011 model year saw the power and torque increased to 147 kW/197 hp/200 PS and 441Nm respectively. Engine meet new Euro V emissions standards. The 3.8L petrol engine remained at 184 kW and 329Nm (using 95RON fuel). There is also a panelled Van version available in markets where such a model can be registered at a lower tax rate.
