V Power Nitro

[joelfigueira]

Any is220d drivers found any benefit using vpower nitro? I use only normal shell and refuse to put any other brand in.

However as I wanna keep my IS running sweet I was wondering would the vpower give any better performance?

I've always use Shell vpower nitro since i've had my is220d but BP or Esso premium fuel is good also. As long as they have additive added to the fuel you can't go much wrong. Keeps the Egr and fuel system clean as opposed to cheap supermarket fuel.

with regards to performance i can't compare with other fuel as i never used anything other then Vpower nitro but engine is smoother and quieter. For a few pence extra i rather put fuel with additive, a peace of mind knowing you not getting crap glogging fuel system or fuel filter.

I use Shell V-power, firstly as its my local and secondly I just feel the better additives in the fuel will look after my engine just that little bit better.

Just put a tankful in mine for the first time, so interested to see the results. 8p a litre more, which isn't too bad.
