Q. How many miles can diesel engine last?
What makes diesel engines work so well and last so long? It’s normal for your car’s gasoline engine to run for around 200,000 miles before it needs a serious overhaul, or you need a new vehicle. But diesel engines can continuously run for an impressive 1,000,000-1,500,000 miles before needing any major work.

Q. Is it OK to drive a diesel short distances?
If you cover a high mileage and the bulk of your driving’s on motorways, then a new diesel (with a DPF) is still a good option. If your driving is predominantly short journeys on local roads, then petrol will be more suitable than a diesel because Diesel Particulate Filters don’t like short journeys.
Q. Is 10ppm diesel better than 50ppm?
Both 10ppm and 50ppm diesel are considered more refined than diesels with a higher ppm, which means that your engine will run more efficiently, causing less wear and tear on your vehicle. Newer, more complex and efficient vehicle engines can only run on lower-ppm diesel.
