Re: diesel additive.
+1 for the shell vpower nitro, essentially it's just diesel with the extra cleaning additives in already.
Winner.
They have a great app as well, tells you the nearest garage and has offers and stuff.
I only fill up with shell these days.

Re: Daylight running lights
Got mine sorted at Awesome GTI recently.
Off = Off (Everything off)
On = On (Everything on)
Side = (Sides & Rears)
Auto = (Works as it should do, lights on in dark/dull conditions & off in bright conditions)
Bit like Ronseal now, does exactly what it says on the switch
