E5 question...

What could we do even if we could prove we are being sold crap petrol ?trading standards maybe what could they do against a giant like Maxol.

I wonder how much that costs?

Its still advertised on their site as being E5 and 99 octane. I think the best way is for someone to ring them up directly or pop into their headoffice for some direct answers. Picket outside the place or something!
 
I was in my local Maxoil at the weekend and noticed the E5 label has been removed from the pumps. The owner told me they have been told from head office that E5 is being removed from sale. He didn't know why but I'm sure its going to upset alot of people on here.
We really do need to find out whats going on. :argh:

The e5 stickers are gone in most stations yes but read on Maxols own website that all their stations are stocking e5 now as opposed to only selected (stickered) stations before , also no mention of e5 been discontinued but the e85 has been discontinued , fairly sure someone contacted them (maxol) direct and they confirmed that e5 is in all stations and e85 is gone , so who do ya believe ? my car is ran on e5 the majority of the time as its mapped for it but on the odd time there is no maxol near and I stop at esso Texaco etc there is a noticeable lumpiness in the running of the motor
 
As above, I asked one of the guys from one of the Maxol stations in Cork, which didn't have e5 stickers on, and he confirmed that all Maxol stations have now 5% ethanol in their regular petrol
