     I have heard the tesco 99 is not as good as 'V' power Dave,cars made less power on runs with this than they did with 'V' power and a few turned out to be running a bit safer/holding back,am sure there was a discussion about it on audisportnet or somewhere

    Hi Rich, According to Audi they need running in, theres even a full page about running the engine in for the first 1000 /1500 km, in the owners manual,
