Sorry if this has already been covered.

I got caught short of fuel the other week and called into a filling station that I was not familiar with. The sign out side said xx per litre, but it was only when I had pulled up and taken the cap off that I noticed that I was putting in super duper more expensive stuff xxx that is supposed to give you/I more MPG.

So does anyone use this more expensive diesel and does it do what it says on the label?

I tried it over a month and it made no difference whats so ever, still only managed 550 miles between fill ups of around 47 liters

I pay £1.309/litre for BP Ultimate Diesel at my local filling station. The car is noticeably more quieter and smoother, especially when starting from cold.

Double Nectar points and using a cashback credit card does offset the extra cost a little though.

I'm paying a little extra over the normal stuff, but I don't fancy paying £££hundreds for blocked injectors, turbo.

I will not go anywhere near supermarket fuel even though there's a Sainsbury's across the road selling the normal stuff for 2p a litre cheaper.

In my opinion it's not worth the saving if your car has to be off the road getting repaired.

Especially the post from Nigel, may answer your question.

Shell fuelsaver is now 123.9/ltr

up from 119.9/ltr only a few weeks ago

im about to try some different additive as we are on winter fuel now and a cetane boost will be most welcome

try Forte every 2/3 months, it certainly quietens diesel knock

Shell and Esso 125 .9 here Asda 119.9 but they have been out of it for the last 3 days as the tanker cannot get out of Grangemouth
Dont forget diesels use more fuel in winter

501 miles on 51.32 ltrs @ 123.9/ltr

44mpg

Lets tell the students they can only drive to Uni and maybe we'll get some fuel protests
