WOW!! that is really excellent economy for a big heavy vehicle like the X. I understand the economy gets even better with removal of the DPF and reprogramming the ECU.

Don't understand why anyone would remove the diesel particulate filter. Spewing carcinogens and ugly black soot?

1000% One of the things that makes me LOVE my 35d the most is NO sooty, black & disgusting exhaust. I am such a diesel snob now! When some early 80's Mercedes 300D or some old Volvo diesel wagon is in front of me...and I can literally see the greasy diesel droplets hitting my windscreen, it pisses me off. I honk at them, pass them, hold my nose and make a face at them. Seriously, those cars should not be allowed on the road...and I owned a 1983 300D and 1992 300D. I loved them, but they were so sooty and gross!!!
