Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

      so when it finally gets to sydney, i will be using it all the time.

      Look I had to fill up with normal BP diesel from Tingalpa today and I've gotta admit, I can feel the difference! (even if it was only about 20km driven)... Will try to stick with Ultimate Diesel from now on...

        Hi guys, I guess I should ask here - and preemptively say g'day in case you are in also Sydney's north & northwest.

        Is anyone here able to monitor when the BP premium diesel is available in Sydney?

        Thanks!

          Tough one I think. Never been able to feel the difference or see a change in numbers but you'd think a cleaner diesel would, in the long run be better for the injectors...

            i would suggest keeping an eye on these forums. as soon as it starts being delivered to the servo's, you won't be able to miss it.....

            plus, there's likely to be some sort of advertising campaign to go with it too...

              The first stop into Sydney off the F3 you will be able to find a BP, Normanhurst.
              1.20/L diesel on a Sunday seems to be the best deal I've seen.

                This is my servo and I live on the Central coast.
                Always the cheapest in the area.
                Two diesel bowsers,so three diesel pumps and 1 highflow
                The Indian employees always very friendly.
                And if you fill up just before they close the doors (11ish) they ask you to take a pie or cake from the display counter.

                  I'm really glad to get this feedback. Yes, the person there, who seemed to be the owner or manager, was very helpful.

                  I told him I had trouble pumping in the diesel and he said I was using thehighflow (the v. thick hose, obviously!). I'll try the others next time.

                  Do they run their diesel pricing up and down or pretty constant pricing? Shell & Caltex are always 124.9-125.9 in Thornleigh/Pennant Hills anyway, so BP Normanhurst 'ULS' diesel's a great deal. I hope it remains this way.

                    Yeah you must have pulled up on the outside bowser near the Main Rd.
                    You have another 3 options, go on the inside of the one you tried, or drive
                    up next to the glass doors to the shop or the other side of this pump.
                    I find no one seems to go to the glass door side, its always empty while
                    all the other diesel users sit in the line for the outside pump.

                    Their pricing is always consistent and hardly moves.
                    I think he must calculate the diesel price on what he pays on the day the
                    tanker delivers the fuel.
                    Always 5 cents cheaper then everyone else in the area including the BP
                    at Thornleigh.
