HI All, I have a 54 plate gen3 jimny will it be ok running on the new E10 petrol?
I looked on the ukgov web site but it's as useful as slicks in snow.
Thanks Adie
Suzuki have confirmed that E10 is fine in the Gen3 and Gen4 Jimny, Take a look in the owners manual.

My 2011 Jimny and 2001 other car are both E10 compatible, but here is the thing my other car has developed a small misfire at low revs and after deceleration after filling up with E10. My Jimny also seems to be running slightly different.
I filled my other car up at a different garage and suspect fuel contamination, so it has now been refilled at my usual garage and for good measure a bottle of Redex Advanced thrown in. It is running a bit better so will see how it goes and then might switch the Super Unleaded.
I put a bottle of Redex in the Jimny as well, I might try Super Unleaded in that just to see if it makes any difference and if it runs better or does more mpg might stick with Super Unleaded.
Going up a long steep hill in my Jimny tonight, I managed to get it to hold top gear for longer and at higher speed, so perhaps the Redex is doing it’s job.

I thought rural fuel stations were still selling E5 but i got to my local station this morning and it was E10 or nothing! i ended up going the long and winding road to work past a Shell station where i filled up with Vpower at £1.50 per litre! I'm sure this is a Government scam to ruin all of the petrol cars over the next few years so everyone goes electric.
