I'll give it a few full fills and try properly although still not sure the extra cost makes it worth it. |

It's not as clear-cut with diesel - Shell's own literature for both VPN+ and FuelSave state the same typical 'from the pump' cetane levels. The VPN+ is supposed to have a % of gas-to-liquid (GTL) which is purer than conventional refined fuel, but I don't think they state how much any more. The filling stations are now switching from winter to summer diesel, which can make a difference too. |

I haven't checked out the XC60 but if it's like the XC90 it has a tank either side of the rear prop shaft and they can cause the fuel to end up in separate tanks and I'm not sure how they are linked. You may have a non AWD car though in which case that wont apply.

Thanks for the feedback.
Looks like I've got some experimenting to do |
