Hi all,

Not sure whether this has been discussed before. Had a search around in the forums but haven't really come across any in regards to the quality of diesel fuel we get here in Oz.

Looking at the diesel spec of the TDI the brochure says 51CZ. I believe that's 51CN in Oz but I have read somewhere that the quality in Oz is only 49CN. Does anyone have a opinion or experience on this?

What does CN or CZ stand for??

Are all the diesel fuel in Oz the same or does some petrol companies have better quality diesel like BP, Shell, Caltex etc. Also is there different grades of diesel like how we get with petrol?

Thanks
