    V-Power vs Supermarket

    I know there will be many variables but I just thought I'd post up the results of my last two tanks of diesel in the Q7 over the last couple of weeks, one V-Power diesel and the last a tank of Sainsburys own diesel with a bottle of Redex thrown in. 91.5 litres V-Power returned 510 mile...

    Shell V-Power diesel

    I inadvertently filled with V-power last tank and other than noticing greater smoke output didn't notice any other driving characteristic change. I've just been and filled up again and noted the tank mileage was a bit low but am staggered to find the V-power has given 5mpg LESS than normal...

    Shell VPower

    Don't worry, this is not a question, just an experience. My W203 C180 Coupe has been developing a lumpy idle at times, just a barely noticeable shudder every 10 seconds maybe. But it was not something I could live with.. I considered Redex (as i've used in all my previous cars), but after...

    Redex vs V-Power ??

    R2D2's thread has got me thinking about cutting the cost of my fuel. I've always used v-power diesel since I got my car, on the few occasions I've used normal fuel I've noticed increased smoke but no other side effect. So my question is this...is putting in a fuel additive like Redex (open...

    Shell V-Power Card

    Anyone have one of these? Is it worth it? And is it best to go for money off fuel vouchers or airmiles or???? I'm sure some of us have the regular Shell Driver's Club Card. Apparently the V-Power Card is invite only and offers double points on V-Power sales. As I understand it you have to buy...

    Shell V-Power

    I know that Shell's V-Power higher octane fuel can have a slight advantage to some engines such as Evos and Subarus but can the C180 sportcoupe take advantage of the fuels plus points? I know that my old rover 25 didnt have any advantage of using it but i know that it can have a few cleaning...

    For those who like/use Shell V-Power...

    Not trying to start up another long thread on whether it works or not... Promo from Shell offering £1 off 30 litres here : Save money on Shell V-Power or Shell V-Power Diesel - United Kingdom - almost covers the £1.20 extra cost for 30 litres over standard stuff anyway... Also, most of the...

    Long term use of V-Power Fuel

    Forgetting the impact on the wallet (I dont pay for fuel! :bannana:) for a moment, what do we think about using Shell V-Power all the time in my S320 with 118K? Seems to like it I get good mileage, but I am sure that any performance change is purely a placebo effect.... I guess I am thinking...
