Any tips on how to quickly clean the diesel soot off the tail gate/canopy rear window of my Hilux. Even with a regular wash the deposits seem to build up, lots of elbow grease is required to get my rear end clean (no jokes please), any ideas?

I had a similar problem with my 80 series turbo diesel blowing soot onto the front of my caravan. I was able to clean most of the soot off with some bug and tar remover.
I have since changed to a 100 series turbo diesel but have not yet done any towing with it as yet. The engine seems to be much cleaner running than the 80 series and I have not seen any smoke at all and there is no diesel smell from rthe exhaust. Whether it will smoke under load or not, I don't know, but here's hoping.
