hey all new to the site and owning a landy i was wondering if it is possible to use pure chip fat given the spiriling cost of diesel it does say in the td4 manual not to use bio diesel but i was wondering if that is just a scare tactic or not many thanks eddy b

Several peeps do, but there are some issues to be resolved. There are peeps much more knowledgeable than I - Ming would be a good start - ask him - and do a search on "bio" - most of your q's will be answered there.

PLEASE Accy - can we have some stickies?
