Hi,

did someone know something about a new diesel-engine for the Sorento ?
I like to order a new Sorento this week, and a more powerful engine will
be nice for the Sorento.

Did you hear rumors regarding a new diesel or are you asking for
rumors? :)

Yes, the diesel seems not quit powerful at the moment but the 3.5
normal engine would be too big for me - too much full consumption.

There are chip tunings available for the diesel, for example

but I don't know if this a big deal.

I'm asking for rumors, because a 2.8-3.0l diesel-engine with between 170-180hp
is the right size for the Sorento. I like this car, and I want to order one, but
the delivery-time is very long, so everything might be possible.
