    I think it should be safe as well for Euro II compliant engine.

    I use this fuel for my diesel Benz W123-200D, good quality fuel, less (visual) emissions, engine runs and idles smoother.

    Am sorry, not familiar with benz diesel engines. Is this CRDI?, from other forums they say that those euro 2 diesels from Big 3 contains high sulfur content and acts as lubricant hence this euro 4 diesel that has far less sulfur may harm your engine if not loaded with additves ( 2T ? ). Thanks for the post, hope others will share their experience with this product

    Ay sorry no its not CRDI. Its one bolt short of a tractor engine, all mechnical, all old school.

    IMHO, if your engine is CRDI, the more it is advantageous that you should use cleaner Euro 4 diesel fuel.

    hahahahaha low sulfur content hahahahaha

    diesel engine unlike the old diesel engines are par with gasoline engines nowadays but the big catch is, they need a cleaner diesel fuel. REMEBER WHY SO MANY FORTUNER. NAVARA AND INNOVA GOT STALLED ENGINES is due to the dirty fuel(but in my honest opinion tanga lang sila making up excuses they did not thoroughly test their products here like bmw diesel and mb diesel and balme it on the fuel filter getting clogged or the denso made thingy)
    euro diesel 4 is good and even better to any diesel engine car, new or old!

    sulfur as a lubricant???? idota nagsabi niyan

    all gas station should sell euro compliant diesel 4!

    sir qoute ko lang nasa adds nila ha....

    "they do however advise replacement of old fuel pump seals and O-rings to avoid possible seal shrinkage "

    mag shrink daw O-rings and pump seals...

    is it bec. of the low sulfur content?

    baka pati B.NEW O-RINGS and pump seals hindi din tumagal at mag shrink?

    kung naapektuhan ang O-Rings and pumps seals.... what about the other parts like the noozle etc...?

    modern diesel engine including the innova requres the euro diesel 4 even the 2005 version baka their referring to the oldest of the old type of pangpasaherong jeep those are warnings for the oldest of the old diesel type engine.

    as one tsikoter here posted(2 post above) mas naging responsive ang engine due to the nice compression and combustion of the diesel fuel.(MAS MALAKAS ANG COMBUSTION HENCE MIGHT PRODUCE MORE HEAT WHICH IS GOOD SA DIESEL ENGINE BUT BAD ON GASOLONE WHICH MIGHT CAUSE THE SHRINKAGE I MIGHT BE WRONG OF-COURSE) if your diesel engine is from the 1990's below medyo tagilid ka BUT! kung papalitan mo yung o rings mo and pump seal for with modern design (cheap lang yan) eh okay na yung engine mo. tulad ng bioethanol, kailangan mo lang palitan yun ring sealant sa may gas para maging bio ethanol compliant na ang auto kahit gaano pa kaluma yung engine(search youtube or ed china's instruction to do just that for diy)

    all manufacturer have already upgraded their engine's to euro standard (ewan ko lang instik made cars same goes with malayasian)

    Any improvement in the Fuel Mileage as well using EuroIV Diesel? How about the Big 3? Will they invest in EuroIV compliant standard?

    The concern with low sulfur diesel is it will decrease the lubricity of the fuel, causing wear on the fuel pump and injectors. But the gas companies have treated their low sulfur fuel with additives to offset the lubricity lost through the removal of sulfur, so there's no need to be concerned about lubricity in Euro IV fuels.

    Nagpa-full tank ako nitong Unioil Euro IV diesel nila kahapon. Almost close to empty na rin yun tank ko kahapon. As I calculated my latest FC, kung saan I used Shell V-Power Diesel, nakakuha ako ng 6.4km/L. So far, nasa 50-60 kms na ang tinakbo ko since I filled up at yun gas meter ko ay mga 2 guhit palang ang binababa. If this will give me an FC of about 6.5km/L or higher, then ito na ang gagamitin kong diesel.

    BTW, ride is a Pajero 4x4 2.8L.

    How is it compared to Shell V power?, any perceptible difference with regards to idling, vibration, accelaration or noise level?

    Di ko pa masyado mapansin kasi may natira pang V-Power. Siguro once na mangalahati ang tanke ko, baka doon ako may mapansin

    MB engine OM603.... old school yan...

    less smoke, more power....

    then ang pinaka malaki ko na napancin....

    malaki ang tinipid... hindi nga lang ako nag susukat pero...

    I usually Fuel Up 500 pesos worth of Diesel everyday fr. mon. to fri....

    then pag dating ng sat. may sobra na ako more or less 500 pesos din worth of fuel.. pang sat. at sun. ko naman na lakad....

    pero ngayon mon up to thurs. palang ako nagkakarga.... napancin ko sobra na ako agad ng 1 day worth of fuel... Not sure po ha at hindi ko kasi sukat...

    ang ginawa ko sir pag nag papa fuel up ako... eh ginaya ko yung ginagawa ng mga JEEPNEY DRIVERS.. na "PURO" kung tawagin nila.... dahan dahan ang pag fuel up mo... para daw walang bula.... so it means puro ang nakakarga mo na walang bula...

    Subukan nyo.... baka nagkakamali ako.. pero para talagang malaki tinipid ng sasakyan ko....

    mas mura nga pala ng almost 1.50 ang Unioil compare sa big three....

    MGA SIR... try nyo po... pakarga sa UNIOIL then sabihin nyo gasoline boy "PURO"

    Hello mga sirs, i just recently purchased a 2013 Toyota Innova (2.5G diesel m/t). Ask ko lang po if ok lang po ba magkarga ng Euro 4 diesel (from Unioil) even though Euro 2 compliant lang ang innova? O may masisira sa makina? Gusto ko po kasi sana i-try since nababasa ko na mas less pollution at more fuel efficient ang Euro 4 diesel compared sa Euro 2 diesel. All comments/suggestions are very much appreciated. Thank you po sa lahat.
