Found this at Asda yesterday - nice round fiver a bottle. Pretty sure my 1.5 dCi has no DPF as the manual says nothing about one and there is no light on the dash for one:

Don't know if this has been mentioned but the new Ultra low sulpher diesel has a max of 10ppm sulpher but up to 5% FAME (Fatty acid Methol Esters) or to the general public 'Biodiesel'. In the UK it is questionable whether there will be more than 3%. However one advantage is the bio diesel is a very good lubricant and should more that offset the lack of sulpher.

I have read from the beginning this topic and given that there were negative effects on the engine I put myself semi-synthetic 2T oil in my car at work. VW Caddy 2.0 SDI 252.000 km. I had no car trouble before, but now I can say it works much smoother, easier climb in revs and the engine pulls better. I only 500 km made with 2T and so far I am very pleased |

If you look at the label it's not to the JASCO spec FB not FC or above as recommended. Even though its states low ash. |

It says JASO FB on the label?! It's the same price as the Asda stuff though. On a seperate note, I filled up with no 2SO today. I fill up when the warning light goes on so effectivley increasing the concentration of 2SO over time as the reserve will always have oil from the previous fill up in it still. |

message to JST and alex pescaru. I finally found the solution to my BMW X3. It had nothing to do with diesel quality or engine. had the transfer box oil changed and no more problems, runs perfectly smooth. Repair cost 65 euro! ( amazing that bmw sayd that their gearbox and transfer box oils do not need to be changed at cars life.....) |

It would only be worthwhile if your keeping the car for hundreds of thousands of miles, during a cars normal lifetime it is of little use, it's a marketing dream. |
