Mine has E10 in it at present, runs fine. How odd.I normally fill up with the Tesco Momentum99 and the engine runs really sweetly. Yesterday had to put some E10 Unleaded in and what a difference, lumpy running and response is noticeably poor. Won't be doing that again.

Possibly it was Tesco basic Unleaded. I plugged the car into my diagnostic just to check if it was something else but everything looked good. At least it won't be too long before I have to fill up again
I am sure I hadn't had a problem before. My wifes Panda TwinAir runs really badly on normal unleaded but perfectly on super unleaded but it is known to be a very picky little engine.

E10 turns corrosive when it's left, if you keep it fresh it's okE10 is suppose to rot rubber fuel lines on older vehicles and diagrams in carbs ,mate o mine had a volvo n he said it coiffed n spluttered when cold and wast much better when hot,, but it ran perfect on decent stuff ...o and E10 it corrosive to some metals

It's funny about rotting pipe etc with E10. Years ago I used to use Cleveland Discol which was, if i remember correctly, 8% ethanol, never had any bother with rotting pipes etc. The biggest danger as far as I know is if the vehicle is not in regular use, the ethanol absorbs water and will rot metal petrol tanks.
Even tho it’s a diesel
