Default Re: Wheels special investigation: Australia’s own Dieselgate

All modern engines are expensive to repair due to the complex new technology. The direct-injection parts on GM's HFV6 (Alloytech to you and me) cost an eye-watering amount. This is where the Barra engine had an advantage - proven technology which wasn't as expensive.
