Runs like crap after filling fuel.

[shanen]

I dont fill my 2005 VZ SV6 Sedan with anything but BP Ultimate or on a shortpay week.. the next one down.. BP is seriously the best for our cars.

Gee I thought I was being flash getting the 95 stuff.
I will give it a go. Cheers

Nothing wrong with 95 , just not from a supermarket .

As above, in future stay away from any of those nasty supermarket chain petrol stations. Just for the record though unless your car is tuned for it you won't see any real additional benefits from using 98ron as its been suggested, plus ultimate is quite a bit more expensive per litre.

A few possible causes for P2178 and P2180, High fuel pressure, Leaking fuel injector or pressure regulator, Failed MAF.

Have you pulled some fuel out to look at it? No point looking at hardware if the fuel is kero and water.

In NZ there is a supermarket chain called Pac and Save , who also sell fuel at self serve stations at the stores , I wouldn't run my lawn mower on their fuel .

Check the fuel filter again maybe? As posted earlier the tank may be full of trash.
Did you fit the new filter the correct way around so the fuel flows through it the right way?

I 2nd that, made the mistake of filling my old vt2 berlina there once. Made it run like a bag of hairy ar$eholes for a week, never again.
I also avoid Gull servos as well, their fuel is not much better.

Anyone know who supplies the Matilda stations with fuel? Is it ****? Also what is the United fuel like.

I was unaware that Gull was bad as well , I had always meant to try them out . Guess not now .
Only tip for filling up , go to a high volume staton , that is one with a high turn over of cars . Low volume stations fuel stays in the tanks too long and can get contaminated .
