New Member with 2018 3.0 Diesel
I have some questions regarding the 2018 full-size Range Rover with the 3.0L diesel engine L405 turbocharged V6 diesel engine (Td6)
1. The car has the ability to shut off the automatic engine stop. For city driving this is annoying, and I think it would save the life of the starter. Is this a good idea to turn off the automatic engine stop in city driving.
2. Regarding diesel blow by. Some companies make catch cans. Is it possible to install one of these catch cans to collect the used diesel vapors before dumping them back into the engine. I’ve installed this on my Cummings diesel and it works quite nice however I don’t know if it’s recommended for the Range Rover vehicle?
3. Is it recommended to use a diesel fuel additive like liquid Molly? If so, how often should this be used?
4. regarding engine startup, how many minutes should I let the engine warm up before driving, please note I live in California and the temperature here never gets that cold, vehicle is usually parked indoors. Don’t know if this applies but been told that it’s good to start a diesel and drive it and not let it idle continuously.
my vehicle has 36,500 miles on it.
