Redex

[DumfriesDik]

Hi everyone,

I have been using supermarket fuel in the new BMW 320d and I just noticed two things. On the filler it says do not use biofuels and on the supermarket pump it says 7% biofuel. This got me thinking. Now I am not too worried about the 320d as it is only six months old. But I do have a couple of other vehicles, a 1998 VW T4 2.5 diesel and the 3.0si Zed.

Has anyone used Redex and had problems afterwards? Problems with the vehicle/engine that is. The T4 coughs out smoke like a navvy on capstan full strength.

Thanks for that.

So its just down to the old VW T4

Your old T4 will probably handle bio fuel much better then a modern diesel.

All comes down to the seals in the pump. A quick google should give you the answer.
