Hey all,
This is a redo of the plot in post #92 without the range, just a simple savings vs economy. This way you can look up whatever diesel economy you are getting and see what the average savings is per year;
This data is with respect to an average economy of 15.2l/100km for the petrol.
The savings includes fuel + service schedule + rego.
One other factor to consider for diesels is if you get better economy figures by throttling the egr system with a reducing plate. This graph should be considered only as relative for an unmodified diesel.
If you get better economy by essentially bypassing/limiting the egr system, then you are running a vehicle which is polluting significantly more than when it came out of the factory, and that type of diesel should be considered as another comparison outside this model.
