This is a Range Rover 3.0 V6 but basically similar to the 3.0 Powerstroke in Ranger and Everest, a good watch.

When I had a Touareg TDI I researched lubricity levels of Aussie diesel and compared it to the minimum levels that the Bosch high pressure fuel pump required . . . little margin for error in the fuel. I have used lubricity increasing additives ever since for the Terry to add a lubricity safety margin.
