Seems that BMW and other EU manufacturers are bucking the trend to EV's (common sense prevails -IMHO) by refusing to define an end date for internal combustion engines (petrol/Diesel)

I'd be interested to see others opinions

I think in addition to the oil separator they should also have fuel injection like Toyota does with their D-4S injection technology.

Port injection, in addition to direct injection, seems to work well on petrol/gasoline engines - not sure how well it would world on diesels.

Agreed.
Do diesels suffer from intake buildup like the petrols do?

With today's CR injector systems directly into the combustion chamber, you can time, spread and sequence the diesel fuel over a longer period than what can be done by injecting into the inlet manifold. This leads to better power, torque and consumption.

Yes, that's the reason they do it - but it loses the cleaning effect of port injection.

All diesels inject directly into the combustion chamber, or at worst a pre combustion chamber. None inject into the inlet manifold.
