The only thing i dont like about the new Diesels is the urea injection that needs to be refilled as a part of normal maintenance. Honda's small diesel doesnt need it, but that solution isnt viable for larger diesels.

We've been hearing about Honda's upcoming clean diesel for quite some time now, and the automaker was kind enough to show a cutaway of the i-DTEC clean diesel for us at the 2008 Detroit Auto Show. Expect to see the engine appear first in an upcoming and unnamed Acura product around 2009 - but while you may have to wait over a year for the engine, you can see some cutaways of it right now in our photo gallery below. Click past the jump for some brief commentary on what we learned about Honda's i-DTEC clean diesel in Detroit.

I am all for automakers that bring these new diesels to the US market.
