SULPHUR CONTENT
If your vehicle is fitted with a Diesel
Particulate Filter (DPF) the maximum
Sulphur content must not exceed
0.005%. Using an incorrect fuel will
cause serious damage to the DPF.
The Sulphur content of diesel used in Land
Rover vehicles should not exceed 0.3% (3000

In some countries diesel will contain higher
levels of Sulphur, which will require reduced
service intervals to reduce the effects on

EXTRA-URBAN CYCLE
The extra-urban test cycle is carried out
immediately after the urban test.
Approximately half of the test comprises
steady speed driving, while the remainder
consists of a series of accelerations,
decelerations and engine idling. The maximum
test speed is 120 km/h (75 mph) and the
average speed 63 km/h (39 mph). The test is
carried out over a distance of 7 km (4.3 miles).

The combined figure is an average of the urban
