Hi there,

I put 1 ltre of unleaded in my TD4 before realising what on earth I was doing! mind was elsewhere! I then put about 12 litres of Diesel so about a quarter of a tank.

Will this cause any issues?

Cheers

1 lt. won't do any damage. Just fill it up every few days for a week or two with real fuel:)

Don't worry about it. I put 5 litres in mine, so just brimmed it with another 45 litres of diesel.
Seems to have cleaned it up a bit.

HGV drivers used to put petrol into diesel, helps to stop it waxing in colder weather...wont do any harm at all, as mentioned just keep watering it down (with diesel not water, lol) when you get chance.
