Check the part numbers. And are they talking about the piston type or diaphragm type? 06F 145 710 C and 06F 145 710 G were diaphragm type DV's. 06H 145 710 D is the later type piston type DV. Note the difference in part numbers, from 06F to 06H. G is NOT a later revision of D. It is a...

It probably has a better detergent package than most other fuels, but then if you are in a 8P TFSI, then the detergent package is never going to touch those valves, so other than injector cleaning - all other benefits are dubious ! Independent testing report of Tesco Momentum 99, if you are...

For high-performance turbo cars, it's perhaps more relevant to compare the MON rating, rather than the RON. Both Shell V-Power and Tesco Momentum 99 have (minimum) 99 RON values. However, the MON figure is derived from a more demanding test, more reflective of todays engines, with higher RPM...

Both Shell V-Power and Tesco Momentum 99 contain ethanol, up to the max permitted percentage :) Marketing and Advertising is a powerful thing :) In the UK, we have a limited number of refineries/storage in the country (12, of which only 1 in Scotland - Grangemouth). All fuel, branded and...

@Dvapower good to see you posting on here. I'm a big fan of yours on the K-Series stuff :)

The Golf R400 is a stunner out of the box, for a start, it has the correct number of doors! :p

According to Shell UK's website, Helix Ultra ECT is available in both 0W-30 and 5W-30, but only 5W-30 meets 504 00 507 00 .... http://www.shell.co.uk/gbr/products-services/on-the-road/consumer-lubricants-tpkg/cars/find-right-car-oils/helix-fully-synthetic/ultra-ect-5w30.html...

Different climate, different temperatures. Their summers tend to be hotter over there, so 5W-40 is better for them. In the UK, for road use, stick to 5W-30, unless you're tracking the car all day, in which case you will benefit from 5W-40...
