Millers Diesel Plus

[Jashper]

I've seen this mentioned on here .....

Is it worth the extra pennies for more oomph and mpg?

I've never tried Millers, but did try BP Diesel Extra and found it very good, giving me a few extra mpg.

 

[peek a boo]

not impressed

I have tried it and I know this sounds daft, but I dont get has much mpg and no oomph.

I think they base the claims on the difference over economy oils - if your A2 is on variable interval servicing it is using one of the highest spec oils available already so I would expect Millers will be no better and potentially worse!

There again my father has used it in his Volvos for several years - takes a can along when it goes in for service and the dealer puts it in instead of theirs. Don't know if he has noticed a difference!

This month's Diesel Car magazine has an article on fuel additives which features an A2 TDi 90 as one of the test vehicles. I have not seen it myself yet but am told it makes interesting reading.

Cheers Spike

Spike,
Saw your post and bought the mag, now I have got some Diesel plus fuel addative and will let the forum know what my impressions are, currently the temprature is really too variable to judge accurately as I find the fuel comsumption does vary by around 5-8mpg when dark and cold (must be all the additional power the lights, heater etc use
