Character

G9T

"Laguna II, Vel Satis. Common rail successor to G8T. Injector failures. DPF on later models. Turbo actuator. More complex = more failure points. Vel Satis reputation doesn't help."

1.5 dCi (K9K)

"One of Europes most common diesels. Simple, efficient, proven. Turbo can wear. DPF care needed."
