In Germany the supermarkets don’t sell fuel, just petrol stations.

in the past, when i had petrol cars, using 100 or 98 octain fuel definately delivered better MPG. i used to drive around europe for my job and filled up many times and drove many miles. i have used injector cleaner with octain booster in my motorbike and could definatey feel the difference.

my shogun will run on vegetable oil, so i am told, but i usually use supermatket diesel and it seems to run fine.

what does cause problems with EGRs and DPFs is short journeys.

we hava a Navarra at work and i have been putting a forte additive in it to try to rduce its smoking, its terrible, i took it to a diesel expert to try to cure the smoking because Nissan said there was nothing wrong. the diesel 'expert' recommended the additive and that he doesnt recommend anyone using a diesel for short trips.

unfortunately the Navara doesnt get much use and gets moved in and out of our warehouse or sometimes taken home by my colleagues unless i use it on longer trips.

The deluded diesel user will have far les trouble with the EGR valves and injectors than the know it alls

As a non deluded diesel user for the last 15yrs, I am happy to say I have had absolutely no problems with EGR valves or injectors.
I buy where ever is cheapest when I need fuel.
