Mitsubishi, Ford, Hyundai and Suzuki tend to be more independent.

Re diesels, Ford use PSA (Peugeot/Citroen) engines in some cars and Suzuki use at least one Fiat diesel. Hyundai and Kia are the same company, so use the same engines. I read some years ago that Hyundai was doing development work for Mercedes and Mitsubishi on some diesel technology. Hard to know who is doing what for whom. And what the end product ends up with can be modified by the ECU program anyway.
