My 207 diesel cuts out (Anti-pollution Error) if I fill up with Asda or Morrisons fuel. That's not fun when I'm driving down the M1. Only drinks Shell now. I'm not putting it completely down to the supermarkets, but it has put me off buying a Peugeot again and far more cautious with the supermarket fuel.

why are people happy fuel is going down 1-2p a litre when crude oil has gone from 60% to 40$ in past year how is that reflected at the pumps,we are yet again being ripped off,taxes are the same as last year and likes of Shell have made record profits,perhaps the extra profits are from selling Road Maps in the shop!!!!!

Filled up 2 weeks ago at Catcliffe, Sheffield and it was 103.9 (I was surprised as Asda is usually cheaper but they were 106.7). Go to fill up Friday last week and it's gone up to 105.9. So it's not really gone down, but up here!

Filled up with diesel at a Morrisons recently for the first time ever.
DPF fault and "engine malfunction" warnings this week.
Coincidence? Maybe ... but never had any DPF problems before in 60k miles.

That's like saying the price of salt is down 10% so why hasn't the price of ready salted crisps gone down 10%?

True but the state applies similar/higher level of taxes compared to UK so the price Norwegians pay at the pump is usually very similar to the UK prices. Over the last 10 years this is the first time when I've seen Norwegian diesel prices appreciably(5p+) cheaper than British... Usually they are within a couple of pennies apart if at all...

Oh thank you Morrisons - ohhh thank you so much for lowering the fuel prices.
Oh, wait - hang on. Asda beat you to it - you mean you were hanging onto the fuel prices until someone else dropped them???
Funny how its ALWAYS Asda that lowers the price first, then the others follow because they have to. :smirk:

Morrisons use more BioDiesel in their fuel - that could have something to do with it.

Gotta love supermarkets. No mention of the 7p it went up from Xmas though.

The opposite in fact - the government has promised the operator a higher MWH rate; which means MORE we have to pay.

Last week Morrisons was the first to cut prices, with unleaded down 2p a litre, and diesel down 1p.
Tesco's cut of up to 2p per litre came into effect at its 500 forecourts last night, while Sainsbury's has put its own prices down by up to 2p at its 303 stations today.
Asda introduced a national price cap yesterday, meaning motorists won't shell out more than £105.7/L on unleaded and £106.7/L on diesel at any of its 272 stations. The cap will mean prices fall by up to 2p a litre in some areas.

Why would that cause energy prices to fall? Hinkley point will be generating electricity, which we cannot store so it is not as though supply (in the usual sense) is increasing. It is simply increasing our maximum capacity that the network has, which is sorely needed since so many other power stations are closing, our population is increasing, and per capita our electricity usage is increasing. Unless the cost of the fuel decreases, the cost of your electricity will not decrease. Case in point - oil is at a rock bottom price at the minute, dipping below $40 a barrel again today, hence this price decrease, and hence an overall decrease in electricity prices compared to this time last year because we are taking advantage of the low prices of oil, and avoiding the high cost of coal.

Hopefully price of LPG will come down too as that was creeping up to 62p a litre at the local Shell stations - no other local suppliers to Braintree as BP have stopped :disappointed:

Just voted cold to stop this pathetic post getting to 1000 degrees! Unbelievable, this is a HOT UK DEALS website and a couple of pence off a litre of fuel is not even worth a mention. There are great posts for £200 off a TV that get voted cold FFS!

U.S. gallon is less then imperial gallon and yes the british tax on fuel is way more then U.S.tax,can you imagine if the yanks were taxed as much as us,there would be another Civil War!!!!
does it mean sainsburys will cut price soon as that's only one I have near me

Ellesmere Port Morrisons not reduced price because no Asda in town.

3 Aug 16#33
Lets do a little maths here shall we the price of the fuel less the tax on it is about 40 pence per litre so a 10% reduction equals 4 pence the fall in value of the pound against the dollar which oil is paid for in has lost approx 10% so in reality the price is about the same, so this must be a reduction. Deal.

At today's rate 1 us gallon in Florida is £1 .365 so that would be the price for 1 imperial gallon, but you forgot to allow for the different fuel tax rate they put on fuel in the USA, same for me in Spain I only pay 80 pence a liter for diesel.

Don't forget production costs, staff wages etc haven't fallen at all, so in reality this is probably a higher decrease than costs have decreased.

Funny how Morrisons (round here at least) have been 2-3p cheaper than the Asda 3 miles away for at least 3 weeks now.

Ahh, may well be. Thanks for the info. I'll have them check that on the next service. It's not a coincidence though that it cuts out after 1/4 tank of Asda run through it. Happened 3 or 4 times before I cottoned on. Now been trouble free for 6 months after using Shell exclusively.
Still can't understand why Peugeot deem it necessary to kill power to my engine at 70mph for antipollution though.
