I have bought a used 4 month old swiftVDI(6400 kms).Can I fill xtrapremium or Hi-Speeed diesel or you guys recommend normal diesel? The experience filling premium diesel in my lancer is that the car is more smoother to drive.Here in cochin no pumps stock STP or other additives.Only sonax diesel treatment available in emperor.Should I use it in my swift?Please I need your suggestions..
Cheers
Dilip Kumar

Fill regular diesel, try the additive once before you stick to it.

On the contrary, people have seen noticable difference on Palio MJD after using System D, as was told by one owner I know. He was happy using it.

System G+Shell regular. Car runs like a dream now. Been using this combo for the last 2 months ever since I found out that Shell has relaunched its regular fuel. It works for me.

BPCL pumps dont stock System-D nowadays, they try to push Speed Diesel instead.
Ford ASC seem to have run out of stock, atleast in Bangalore.
So, I called up TATA Dealers, & guess what , every ASC has stock.
System-D available in Tata ASC have different sticker with photos of Tata Sumo & Indica on them, & the words " Tata Motors co-branded products" & " approved for Tata Sumo/Safari/Indica", other than that there is no difference, they have old stock & hence old price: RS.198 for 250ml instead of Rs.250 for 250ml.
I just picked up from concorde motors. The guy looked at me in a strange way when I asked him as to how many bottles of System-D stock he was left with.
I picked up 5 bottles for Rs.990/-

I have been using system G in my optra for quite sometime now. It is recommended by GM and I find it very useful. I usually buy it from HP pumps.

Hi, I have never used this System G which you guys are talking about.Sorry this is first time i heard about it.
I use normal fuel.Should i be trying the system G.Is there any benefit for the car or engine?Or is it just little extra pickup/milage.Please Advice.Thank you

i think the pumps are still supposed to sell it. I thought they had stopped distribution and bought their entire stock ( 5 bottles)

I went there last week and there was fresh stock there. (didnt check the mfg date though)

Hi, Where do you get System G in Chennai ?

janitha · 4th April 2009, 22:02

After reading all the posts, I feel it is a psychological performance booster. Like the placebo effect.

I use System G for my 2002 Palio. Marginal increase in fuel efficiency. 'Peppiness' Increases. (Could be placebo effect

but it works for me and my driver agrees )
I look at it as an alternative to not using 'Speed' petrol.
Available at Bharat Petroleum bunks.

vdiatech · 1st July 2009, 20:47

I do end to end and I have also seen a marginal increase in fuel efficiency.
This was my first bottle of SYSTEM - G . Now my corsa will have a regular dose of System-G and IOC ordinary Unleaded.

I dont notice any improvement in performence or smoothness ( GM and IFTEX claim engine will run smoother ) . Probably since it my first bottle !
