    Seems like you got the minimum 'durability' life of 5 years / 160,000kms WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. (applicable to all euro 4,5, and 6 engines)
    So I guess you wouldn't want others to know if you were wanting to offload it.

    For those wondering what the future hold for reciprocating engine emissions, and the durability requirements into the future (see slide 4)

      My understanding is the from around 2017 there won't be a EU standard, and the U.S. standard will be adopted as the world one.
      Emissions engineers are sweating blood apparently and lobbyists too.
