Diesel price in 2004: 0,89
SP95 ESSENCE PRICE in 2004: 1,06

Well yes but 2004 is a long time ago ... at the speed we are going, the diesel will be at 3 euros by 2010 and even before.

Today at TOTAL excellium SP95 = 1,54 euros and excllium diesel = 1,52 euros ie 10 francs / liter.

It's the same price = o difference.

After the prices at TOTAL recorded yesterday:
Excellium SP95 = 1,54 euros and excellium diesel = 1,52 euros.

, this morning at Carrefour:

SP95 = 1,48 euros and diesel = 1,47 euros.

In the end, given the very small price difference between TOTAL and Carrefour, is it not better to fill up at TOTAL with Excellium, which seems to be of better quality and lower consumption? that's what we say ..... can someone confirm?

For diesel it would even be imperative to put Excellium in Hdi because they do not support low quality diesel?

Where is the truth ?

Thank you in advance for your enlightening answers.

Having only switched to diesel very recently, I cannot do a diesel comparison but I can confirm that my gasoline titine does a 50 'more km with a full at total or texaco than at intermarché (600 km> 650 km, even in winter). For me there is no photo.

It is not an informed answer but a simple observation :D

And me, my old diesel r21 from 1990 is 200km longer or 1350 on average with a full Esso of 65l rather than supermarket.
And my friends generally don't believe me ... Too bad for them ...
Having said that, I will have to change with a "new" one from 1998 and don't know what to choose ... Gasoline or diesel? In view of a self-produced fuel! : Lol:

that's 2 more which indicate less consumption.

I didn't believe it either.

There's more to try since it's practically the same price, but it would be interesting to have an explanation (additives?).

You will no longer come to TOTAL by chance.

Not all common rail diesel engines support water in diesel. Apparently, this happens more frequently when you fill up in the supermarket than in "brand" stations ...

I speak of course out of trickery and trickery always possible .... : Cheesy:

all fuels come from the same depot, the distributors have agreements and the deposit mark is regional, total in Brittany, shell in the south, etc.
f for a supermarket it will be "raw storage", in total we will put the additive before depositing in the truck so that it brews ... the same truck can lift the supermarket then the total station next to it, its tanks are split ...

there is always water in gas oil, but it is fixed by the regulations ...
where there may be a problem is in the maintenance of the tanks, but there are also gougnaffiers in the "brand" stations : Cheesy:

Yes, so to read you it is a stroke of luck to not find water in the diesel and one also a stroke of luck to break his common-rail diesel engine because of this fleet?

Maybe on a vehicle that drives very little, there can be water by condensation? this is what i heard after the breakage of an injector of 807 Peugeot Hdi (repair cost: 1000 euros). The guy is going to buy a gasoline because of this problem of vehicle which hardly drives.

The testimonies of people who break their diesel engines are not FALSE to discredit diesel. Of course, we cannot make a general statement, as usual.

Does anyone know of a reliable site that would talk about these differences in fuel quality between supermarkets and brands?
