Cant imagine that using only £10 worth of petrol (35 miles worth ) will be the death of the engine, the fuel seems to be killing Lamba sensors so there will be your first clue. Good luck and keep everyone posted on your findings

My sister had an old Clio, filled it to the brim with Tesco\'s crud and the next day had blue smoke coming out the exhaust!

Think it maybe just a coincedience though!

Spoke to the lass in my local Tesco\'s where I am a regular (too regular at the mo :rollin )and it appears that the petrol affected was only the 95 RON stuff, and alsmost all the outlets affected were in London - the contaminated batch was delivered about 2 weeks ago - so if you\'ve filled up very recently or filled with 99\' - no worries. :driving
