Frequently Asked Questions
What are the most common signs of diesel engine problems?
Common signs of diesel engine problems include hard starting, excessive smoke, loss of power, unusual knocking noises, increased fuel consumption and difficulty idling smoothly. These issues often indicate injector wear, fuel contamination, or air leaks. Addressing symptoms early helps prevent further engine damage and keeps the vehicle operating reliably.
Why does my diesel engine produce black, white or blue smoke?
The colour of your engine's smoke usually indicates a specific issue. Black smoke often means excess fuel or poor combustion, white smoke suggests unburnt fuel or low compression and blue smoke points to burning oil. Consistent smoke should be inspected promptly, as it may indicate injector problems, worn components or incorrect fuel–air balance.
How often should a diesel vehicle be serviced?
Service intervals vary based on the vehicle, usage and driving conditions, but most diesel engines perform better when serviced every 10,000 to 15,000 kilometres. Regular maintenance includes replacing oil, updating filters and checking key systems. Frequent servicing prevents costly repairs, improves efficiency and extends the engine’s overall lifespan.
