98 RON Rip Off

Campaign united then!

In reference to the earlier comment that all petrol is the same......occasionally, my Megane RS250 struggles for the first 30secs when it has been parked outside during the day.  I only use Shell and Caltex (98 RON).

 

I have only encountered this problem when I have filled up with Caltex.  I cannot recall it ever happening with Shell.

A couple of Months ago, my Son borrowed the car and mentioned that  he filled up the tank for me.  During the following week, I had the issue of rough idling on cold start.  I asked him if he could tell me which fuel he used....you guessed it...Caltex.

 

So I find it hard to believe that they are the same fuel.

hmmmmmm interesting that you actual mention this.

This could be the problem I have in the mornings, getting the car started.

 

might have to go out for a 400km cruise before monday morning and then fill up with bp98.

Your car cold starts sh*t too?

[masda74]

I know it does. It's not the fuel.

[Lennox]

That was a question haha

[masda74]

I was making at statement.

I have recently come across some info that confirms it is not the fuel.

[MattyP]

So 98 is mainly the same

[masda74]

I am not confirming that nor denying it.
