• Diesel fuel filters - Renault 5 Jul 2005 (Forum)
  Since 1996 Renault have extended their change intervals for fuel filters from 18000 to 36000 miles. Is this a result of clean, modern fuels or are they just stretching the interval for the sake of cost ? Can I risk the fuel filter on my 2002 Megane dCi for 36000 mls? I change the oil and filter

• Mondeo Fuel Gauge 27 Jun 2007 (Forum)
  Yes, another possible problem. When I bought the Mondeo (1997 2 litre Model) the guy told me he had filled it up with fuel. I now know that he is a habitual liar. The fuel guage reads MAX all the time, even with ignition off. Is the car full of fuel or is it just shorting out causing it to read

  Your recent articles suggest that this fuel lacks lubricity. I have a 1996 Mercedes E Class, 300 diesel, with 68,000 miles and which I hope to keep for a very long time. On one occasion you sugested using Shell Plura which may help the longivity of the fuel pump, but this fuel is not available

  I read very recently that Audi America recalled some 50,000 A6 Quattro models (1998-2000)for faulty fuel sending units. Sulphur deposits on the fuel sending units (3) gave false readings such that empty fuel tanks gave the impression that there was fuel in the car. This was common to quattro

• Which fuel? 1 Oct 2006 (Forum)
  Hi all, I have just bought a BMW 530i Sport. My cars user handbook says that I should use 98 RON fuel, but that 95 RON fuel can be used. Which do you recommend I use? If there is a proper reason for the use of 98 RON fuel then I will do so, but it seems most odd that the manual states 95
