| ![]() It is a long term problem, as was the case of valve seats of petrol engines getting damaged when Unleaded was introduced. In the west due to a higher compression the problem was worse. It will be an issue only slowly developing. Last edited by Vid6639 : 25th December 2017 at 14:48. Reason: as requested |

Will they still face issue with BSVI fuel? Just like when Vento 1.6 TDi was launched in 2010 with BSIV norms. It ran perfectly with BSIII fuel until nationwide availability in April 2017. Don't want to purchase a new car which after 2 years will be troublesome and lose considerable resale value. Kindly advise. | |

| ![]() As on date the 2.8 1GD-FTV or 2.4 2GD-FTV vehicles sold in India are not BS6 (Euro6) compliant since these do not have DPF or SCR. Same engines sold in other developed countries are Euro6 compliant and they come with DPF and SCR emission control systems. |

On the other hand, a slightly naive question that perhaps has been asked and answered - between petrol & diesel BS4 engines which has the the least impact cause of this change in fuel standards? | |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() The Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) has set up virtual labs for testing of BS-VI engines, before the norms kick in from April 1st, 2018 in Delhi and from April 1st, 2020 for the rest of India. Quote:

I believe we have a thread that the Fiat Multijet 1.3L will not be upgraded to BS-VI, even today all Maruti Diesel cars are powered by this engine. By 2020 their own BS-VI diesel engine might be ready, but surely not by next month. Even petrol cars like Maruti Alto, Omni are powered by the age old F series engine (which is from the 80s). So, interesting times are ahead as to how the things will unfold in April, 2018. Will the Manufacturers be able to upgrade the engines in time? Or will some models be discontinued in Delhi? Or will the deadline be postponed? Last edited by chiranjitp : 1st March 2018 at 12:25. | |

| ![]() The deadline is April 2020 for all India including Delhi. It's just some manufacturers will start selling BSVI compliant engines and oil companies will make available the BSVI compliant fuel from April 2018 in Delhi. This is what I understood from the article. |

| ![]() Today the OMCs have released the information that about 25 cities may be Euro VI fuels next year. This is a year ahead of schedule. |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() Good news and now the OEMs can't cite uncertainties towards launching BS6 compliant vehicles. Quote:
