    Will Pug HDI vehicles such as my 407 run on biodiesel? If so does anyone
    know a plave near Bristol where it can be obtained?

    Try here http://www.biodieselfillingstations.co.uk/approvals.htm

    A quick scan says that older cars are ok on 100% bio modern cars only 10%
    mixture.

  3. Can't quote where, but I remember reading somewhere that some manufacturers
    regard the use of bio-diesel as invalidating the warranty - so check before
    you do it.

    Hi,
    According to a recent communication, officially the HDI's can be operated
    with 20% of vegetal oil. However, I wouldn't take my chance when I have a
    look to parts' price.

    HTH,
