Hi Iboomalot:

______________LEV-2 ** ULEV-2 ** SULEV-2

CO (50K/120K): 3.4/4.2 ** 1.7/2.1 ** Unmeasurable/1.0

NOx (50K/120K): 0.05/0.07 ** 0.05/0.07 ** Unmeasurable/0.02

PM (50K/120K): Unmeasurable/.01 ** Unmeasurable/.01 ** Unmeasurable/.01

HC (50K/120K): 0.015/0.018 ** .008/.011 ** Unmeasurable/.004

___A typical diesel available today even when brand new has far higher NOx and PM output then a 120K SI-ICE of ULEV-II or SULEV-II spec. Add the SULEV-II rated PZEV’s to the mix and you are really pumping out the garbage and this includes CO and HC, the TDI’s supposed saving grace. Even the latest CDC CI-ICE announced the other day that you brought up cannot meet Tier II-Bin5 emission standards (LEV-2 at 120K miles) at the 50 or 120K levels across the board unfortunately.

___As for adding tank data, I wish more diesel pilots would add their own in fact.

___Good Luck
