Well I've been using V-Power for a while now H but was thinking more along the lines of problems in the future caused by continued use of premium diesel !!
Here's another thought... what about the differing mix of premium diesels and their 'performance enhancing additives'... could they affect the DPF
I'm using Wynn's at the moment and the car is running better. Fuel consumption is slightly up though, but that's only on one tank and I've done fewer A-road miles recently.
Is Wynn's another one of those diesel additives Fraser? We have one in Australia called Wynn's Spitfire. Named perhaps after your famous fighting WW2 airplanes?
Soot, needs a chimney sweep?: Low on exited particulates compared to Benzine motors? Well they keep it up the chimney don't they, those oil burners to qualify? Not very helpful but I'm a sweet fuel person.
Twas me - specifically told by THE main AR dealer that BP Ultimate/Shell V Power are known to cause issues. Also told by an unconnected 3rd party that there's a tech bulletin to dealers re this but it hasn't yet been communicated to owners - great eh !
I ran my 159 on BP ultimate for a year without any issues. As soon as I start to use standard fuel it begins to run rough (not loss of power rough, but just rough). I am currently adding Wynn's to standard stuff and it's a smooth as a baby's bum and almost feels as good as the 210 engine.
