• Vauxhall Vectra C (2002 - 2008) - Diesel Fuel Quality 30 Oct 2007 (Forum)
  The Vectra immediately returned to its good starting and smooth running. If my tank of ordinary Shell diesel contained water or particles then surely diluting it with 30 litres of fresh diesel wouldnt make the slightest difference. Ive generally used Shell fuels believing them to be one of the better brands but is this a quality problem or something else?

• Citroen Xsara Picasso - Diesel fuel pump leak in engine - Advice needed 20 Nov 2010 (Forum)
  Hi, I have a 2.0 HDI (90) 53 plate Xsara Picasso Exclusive. This past week I have noticed a strong diesel smell coming into the cabin and it has been traced to a leak to the right side (looking in on top of engine) of the main diesel injector pump, most likely the o-ring has went. I took it to a local garage and they said they last tried replacing a o-ring on the same kind of engine (Peugeot) and it just made the problem worse, the reckon a new fuel pump will be the best option.

• Using bio diesel in Honda civic 2.2 14 Jun 2006 (Forum)
  I was running my 2002 passat tdi on 100% pure bio diesel without problem but have just changed it for the new Honda Civic 2.2 diesel. I can't find any information on the internet about using bio diesel in the new Honda engines. Although I would normally try anything once it's a big risk deliberately putting the wrong fuel in a brand new car.
