They use more expensive fuel ( some countires its cheaper)
They give off more emissions than new petrol engines
They rattle when cold and sound like a tractor.
The new upcomming Direct injection petrol engines ( DI) and upcomming DI with turbo petrol engines ( not just 335i but a whole range from 4 cylinder to V8 ) will make more power , give off less emissions and use less fuel.
Diesels days are numbered
