Hey guys, still learning about diesels but I am wondering if anyone knows the expected compression pressure on our cars?

Also, is a special kit needed to test diesels or I use my gasoline car kit, save a new common rail connector.

Lots of work to do on our cars? Anybody personally done it before?

You need some very specialised kit to do a compression test on these but there is a computerised test function using diagnostics.

Do you mean we can get compression readouts via MMI or? :confused:
