• Mazda 323 (1998 - 2003) - Shell V-Power Diesel 27 Mar 2008 (Forum)
  I just wanted to share my own experience with the v-power diesel which I've been using on/off for last 3 weeks. I filled up the car with v-power diesel (fuel tank was almost empty). Drove the car and after few miles I could feel the smoothness and a bit of extra power in particular when driving
• V-Power - no more rotten eggs 16 Nov 2006 (Forum)
  As soon as I fill up with either the old version of V-power or the latest product, the rotten egg smell goes from my Mazda6 Sport 5k. It seems to be worse on Sainsbury's petrol, better with normal Shell and goes with V-Power. Any ideas how this can be? I assume its a good sign! James
• Any - New Shell V-Power Nitro+ 23 Apr 2013 (Forum)
  At the weekend, I was amused to see that Shell is rolling out an updated version of its V-Power premium fuel, called V-Power Nitro+. Unfortunately, it contains no nitromethane, so it will not give your vehicle the performance of a top fuel dragster.  However
• Shell V-Power 3 Sep 2006 (Forum)
  I noticed with some surprise that the Turkish Grand Prix was sponsored by Shell V-Power. V-Power has been going for several years in Germany where it is advertised as 100 Octane. When I got to my local Shell station all the Optimax pumps were marked V-Power! Can't imagine all the petrol had
• Shell V-power verses BP Ultimate 19 Jan 2007 (Forum)
  Has anyone tried Shell V-power diesel yet and if so how does it compare with BP Ultimate diesel in terms of noticable performance and economy ?
• Winter diesel and Shell V Power 14 Jan 2013 (Forum)
  I believe it is this time of year that winter diesel is being sold and a resulting loss of economy. Would V Power diesel be likely to provide better economy during winter? Thanks
• Shell Driver's Club / V-Power Club 26 Mar 2010 (Forum)
  Hello, I have had a Shell Driver's Club card for a few years, a couple of months ago they sent me a V-Power Club card, apparently this offers additional benefits on the purchase of V-Power fuel though points can also be accrued on purchases of normal Shell fuel. I now have a letter saying

• Subaru Forester II (2002 - ) - V-Power or Regular 2 Jun 2008 (Forum)
  I have gone back to regular Shell unleaded from using V-Power and although the car is very slightly less responsive, it is clearly achieving a higher mpg. Your thoughts welcome.
• Difference between normal diesel and Shell V-Power 25 Jan 2010 (Forum)
  I was wondering what the difference is between V-Power diesel and normal diesel fuel Is it like super unleaded petrol but for diesel (i.e. potential to make the car go a bit quicker) ? Sorry to sound thick but I genuinely do not know.
• 2010 Seat Leon FR CR170 - Petrol in a diesel AAAARGH!!! 5 Sep 2012 (Forum)
  I managed to put about 12 litres of V-Power petriol into my empty Leon tank and then proceeded to brim it with around 45 litres of V-Power diesel. Like an idiot (as I now know) I started the car and thinking I may have gotten away with it, drove it for around 10 miles whereupon the car

• Shell V-Power Diesel users 25 Nov 2015 (Forum)
  I noticed my car puff out a bit of black smoke the other day which it never ever normally does. I'm wondering if this is the detergents and additives in V-Power diesel loosening and cleaning the injections etc Has anyone noticed this excess smoke happen; i know for some diesel cars this one could
• MINI Cooper S - V - Power fuel 21 Dec 2014 (Forum)
  Evening guys, I own a 64 plate Mini Cooper SD, I'm looking for your thoughts on V Power diesel? I've noticed it's around 8p per litre more, is it worth it? If it provides better performance & more MPG then it would be worth it, but it appears there is a bit of an ongoing debate about whether

• Any - Shell V Power Price Premium 12 Apr 2023 (Forum)
  I would be interested to hear what extra price people are paying for using V Power rather than regular fuel. When it was first introduced V Power (near me) was 3 or 4 pence a litre more than the standard Fuelsave but that seems to be getting bigger and bigger. For the last few months
• Mercedes-Benz CLS 350 CDI - Shell V-Power/BP Ultimate Diesels 24 May 2016 (Forum)
  I just wanted to endorse HJ's recommendation of Shell V-Power Diesel.  Last week on a 400 mile run from Dijon using a mixture of Shell V-Power and BP Ultimate Diesels I pulled into our Hotel in Carcassonne showing an average of 49.6 mpg for the journey.  This was door to door, included
• Honda CR-V 2.0lt Petrol 4WD Auto 65/2015 Plate - Engine power 18 Apr 2016 (Forum)
  This engine is very under-powered for an otherwise perfect car, un-responsive in Auto. I have to engage S and use the paddle change to drive up the steep hills were I live. Can this engine be tuned to give more power in Auto?

  HJ is always telling us to use it. Some interesting material from the US where the basic grade "gas" is pretty rough: http://tinyurl.com/lepxxwg ...
