My husband managed to put 860ml of petrol into my diesel car last night. :censored: After I realised what he was doing, he filled it right to the brim with diesel, and it seems to be going ok. Guy in the fuel station said it would be ok, and I couldn't ring Seat etc at 10pm on a Sunday evening...

Hi, I've searched around all over the forums but not really found a simple answer, I got confused with all the Mufflerectory talk and I'm a real newb. Anyways, I'm sure the answer will be no, and feel like a bit of a heretic even asking, but: Is there any way to get the MkI Leon Cupra TDi to...
