    My Mazda owners manual says "The use of E10 fuel with 10% ethanol in Europe is safe for your vehicle". But I do not know if this is what will be in the forecourt pumps.


    Is it a new Mazda??

    What's the E10 to do with diesel? B10 is the diesel with 10 percent of FAME.

    All pumps should now a sticker stating what level of bio/ethanol is in the fuel
    Ie B7 or E5

    Exactly, E10 is to do with petrol, not diesel. Most petrols can take E10 bar the earliest direct injection petrols (think GDI Mistubishis and Volvos, and the very early FSI VW Group products, up to about 2004 or so).

    Just got diesel in topaz ushers quay and something new

    They have B7 plastered all over the pumps specific to diesel aswell as the other EN number

    Petrol has also received the same treatment

    Could it be B10 pumps alongside B7 pimps or are they ready for B10 pumps only

    New EU labeling regs, I think.
