I've also come the the conclusion that shell V-Power is worth the extra 5ppl as my figures show that it adds as little as .2ppm when each mile is costing 12p the engine is far more responsive, and it seems more frugal under pressure!
Yours is a diesel..... thats cheating lol ...... and I was clearing out any cobwebs that might have been present
