Thanks for sharing wisdom

G'day Ray,
Yes, the petrol 4.7Lt V8 and 3.7Lt V6 are essentially the same engine minus 2 cylinders. Not sure what glend is on about with his comment seeing as though the CRD engines in the WJ and KJ are of a different configuration and made by different manufacturers?
Anyway, I bought a 2007 KJ Sport 2.8 CRD for my wife a few months back to go with my V8 WJ and it's a great little car. Had some issues when I bought it and have also been experiencing relatively high fuel consumption, but I'm starting to address things now I have some time to spend on it.
Any reason you're going for the petrol over the CRD?
Cheers,
Hanna
