I've just been reading up on the introduction of E10 fuel in the UK and the possibility that it can cause problems for certain older cars and have become worries that this is going to be an issue for my MK4 Polo
The gov.uk website says the following:
As the MK4 is not listed as one of the exceptions all should be fine? I'm probably just being paranoid but I'm just worried they aren't listing older models because there are not that many of them left on the road!With the exception to those models listed below, which used the first generation FSI engines, E10 is cleared for use in all Volkswagen petrol engine vehicles.
