Do diesel engines have catalytic converters.

'Cats' are certainly available for diesel engines, though I don't know how common it is to have them fitted in cars. Nearly all (if not all) petrol cars have them fitted in Europe now. My old truck had one fitted to overcome the particulate emission limit and so save me �500 on my Road Tax. However, the government has now changed the rules and to get the Reduced Pollution Certificate (RPC) to save you �500 a year, you now have to have a particulate trap fitted. As this costs about �3500, its not worth it.

Hmm, catalytic converters, diesel engines, - where to put it? I know, travel!

Thank you Dean for your help.

Morello since this website does not have a car section travel which believe it or not involved cars was the only place i could find to ask my question.

 

Satisfied.
