Speaking fuel caps anyone?
You were very lucky. I've got the 2.2HDi and apparently rail pressure is something like 1300bar so I really hope I don't put the wrong stuff in.
1300 bars? That's some pub crawl! No seriously according to my calculations that's 1300 x 14.7/2240 = 8.53 TONS (!) per sq inch.
That's about the same as an elephant standing on one leg in high heels, which is what you'd start seeing if you went into 1300 bars.
The 2.0 TDi engines are common rail motors. The sensible advice would be to get it drained to be honest.
If it were my car that's what I'd be doing

now they are but the earlier ones were still running VWs PD system. not sure when they changed over, think it might have been around 2007 but would need to check
I know people who use Veg oil in there diesels and use petrol to thin it down a bit when it get's cold (10% petrol and 90% veg oil)
No problems at all,
Putting Diesel in a petrol engine would be far worse to do,
I'd love to run a diesel off some of that Nitro Meth R/C engine fuel to see if it works (in theory it should)
but I dare say the engine would go boom first
I guess this still happens to a lot of people!Over 11,000 page views on this thread, it could be our busiest thread yet!
