I'd say it isn't. Diesels run at different temps than a gasoline engine.

I would think that they are not compatible as the diesel usually requires more coolant capacity than a petrol engined car.

All the best, Peter.

Sorry I cant see why a larger radiator would be an issue as the thermostat wont open till its warm enough anyway ?
