"Hi xxxxx,

You are correct; fuel companies at the moment are experiencing a shortage in stock due to a refinery issue earlier this year and therefore running low on certain fuels. This is an industry wide problem, so BP is not the only company experiencing these difficulties.

At the moment, the quoted time in which this problem will be rectified is April, however I cannot guarantee this.

Bp does aplogise to all our loyal customers for this inconvenience and I assure you that BP is doing everything humanly possible to get the stock levels back up to standards.

As BP is committed to providing quality fuels to our customers no

alternative has been adopted as yet.

Kind Regards

Well until the 98RON fuel gods decide to stock us up again, I think that this would be a good thread to list places where 98RON CAN still be bought. Would you be happy to update the first thread with locations Sam or should I start a new thread?

To get the ball rolling:

Friday 21st March - BP Victoria Rd, Rydalmere - BP Ultimate 98

lucky i have half a tank and my car won't be driven till like autosalon or something lol

Most 98RON petrols "go off" so to speak after around 2 weeks. The additives they use break down and it is no longer 98RON.

In saying that, I wouldn't be keeping any petrol in the car for a long period of time.

    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
    • Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
