Hi All, Regarding the system-D stuff, I was told by my A.S.C very assertively not to add any diesel additives to mHawk. Can any one who have been using this on mHawk engines please clarify? Thank you in advance. |

Don't use it. Toyota gave Guderian a very good explanation as to why you should not use these or even premium fuels in your CRDI engines. |

red Liner any pointers as to why this isn't recommended? In the previous page I saw recommendations on adding System D to CRDI engines and here its the opposite. |

even I would like to know why I should not use it. I couldnt find the info that Toyota provided. Ive been using this stuff off an on - I have so far only noted a positive effect in my 2.6 Crde. And the Service Manager at M&M SKS Auto did indeed recommend to me that I should use it, because it helps keep the injectors clean on account of our impure fuel. This was last October and since then I ve been on it. |

ASC in Bombay always had a reservation against using both premium diesels as well as System D. Looks like each ASC has his own say and M&M has no stance on this matter. I have not seen any restriction on using either mentioned in the Owners' Manuals. |

thank you Sir But do you yourself find it to be advantageous? I'd like your views so as to help arrive at a decision whether to continue using this or not. |

I have been using premium I have never used System D, but plan to use it from here on regularly. The fact that my engine is running well despite 2.68 lakh kms on it itself is testimonial that premium diesels may not be harmful to engines (at least not my non-crde engine). |

In line with the discussions going on - I've being using only normal diesel for my 2005 Crde Slx ( done 96k ). No issues - contantly returned with 10.75 to 11.5 mileage. No changes ( FE or smoothness ) with using premium fuel. No additives used nor proposing to use. Reason for posting this - Last 10 days, constant whirr sound from Belt / alternator area. With bonnet closed, the sound seems like a moan. Does not increase with rpm. local mechanic says idler bearing issue but i feel it could be alternator bearing. had changed idler bearing last october at 63k. Please help in diagnosing. |

folks, need some help here: my 2008 mHawk VLX has a strange problem. sometime when i hit a small hump or ditch/pot hole, the ABS light comes on and the voice assist says my Hand Brake is engaged. if i stop the vehicle, switch off the ignition and turn it back on, the issue disappears. I am afraid that the SS will open the console area to check wiring & mess it up and hence have not had it attended to. if someone else has faced it or knows some solution, please assist. thanks a lot. |
