Hmmm

The fact that they talk about changing ignition timing, in concert with the following from their FAQ section:

Q. Will this fit on my particular cars model ?

A. If your cars is equipped with electronic fuel injection, it will. 99% of cars manufactured after in or after 1988 are equipped with a fuel injection. It will however not work on turbocharged vehicles.

Leads me to think that it only applies to the petrol engined models.

My thoughts exactly ParkerNorris - I didn't think the diesel had an ECU.

I wouldn't touch this gizmo with yours!
As far as i can gather this little device will effectively bung in extra fuel (Like the engine is still cold)even when the engine is hot.

Essentially the motor will be running a very rich mixture,which, i suspect, will actually decrease the available power, when up to normal running temperature.

Overfueling is not a good thing on any engine,diesels are no exception.
