Captiva diesel reflashing

Answered by Carsguide.com.au · 04 Sep 2008

HOLDEN contacted us and advised us that they have not been reflashing Captivas to improve the fuel economy. There are a lot of people disappointed with the economy of the diesel Captiva, but I'm sure their expectations were a little too high -- 10 litres/100km isn't too bad.

Holden Captiva: Petrol vs diesel

Answered by Carsguide.com.au · 19 Jun 2008

MODERN diesels perform on a par with petrol engines now so you won't lose performance. When looking at economy, it's important to consider the higher purchase price of the diesel model and the higher fuel price.
