I've just bought a 60 plate note (registered in Feb 2011) which was advertised as a DCI-86.
If you look at the usedNote's on the Nissan website they now advertise this years diesels as a DCI-90 which according to the specs has a slightly better MPG (67 combined as opposed to 63).
However, if you spec up a new diesel note on the Nissan site it still describes the engine as a DCI-86. Also, the dealer i got it from said there hadn't been any changes made to the diesel engines for several years and thought the difference was down to whether the figure was stated as PS or HP (all greek to me so i didn't question him!)
Can anybody shed any light on this?
