  • BP Ultimate Diesel in Adelaide

    Hi Guys,
    Havent been able to get any BP Ultimate Diesel in Adelaide for the last couple of months.
    Would anyone have heard updates on the ultimate diesel supply?
    Is the standard BP Diesel the best fuel to use until the ultimate comes back on line ?

    Thanks
    Black TDI Tiguan

    It's an Australia-wide (and to some extent, worldwide) shortage.

    The cetane boosting agent manufactured in Europe is in short supply (production scaled down due to QA testing).

    Normal BP diesel is fine.

      I could have used some Ultimate tomorrow on the dyno... Is there any better regular Diesel than BP's at the moment?

        Just add additive cetane booster available at auto barn or super cheap auto

          Don't know if it's available anywhere else but I found that my local BP has it's Ultimate Diesel back in stock.......well I think it's ultimate. On the bowser it says "improved formula" but doesn't specifically say it's ultimate.

            I'm using Caltex Vortex until BP come back in, which doesn't look like being anytime soon.

              I topped up this morning and can confirm that Ultimate diesel is back, at least in my neck of the woods.
              My local (Burleigh Heads) has got the signage up advertising as such. Hopefully it's the same everywhere where it was originally sold.
