    After nearly 10 years driving exclusively diesel cars SWMBO has filled her diesel Qashqai with petrol today. So I'm looking for some way to prevent a reoccurence. A quick Google has come up with three different physical preventative devices - FuelSure, Fuel Angel & SoloDiesel.

    Anyone on here have any experiences good or bad with any of these?

    All input gratefully received.

    Somehow i don't think she'll make the same mistake twice.

    Paying attention is usually the best remedy.

    True, but my judgement is that a confidence booster is needed.

    I've yet to make the mistake after 18 years of driving diesels and putting petrol in the 'Sud from time to time but I'm gonna get one of these things for myself as well 'cos if she can do it so can I. Old age has some unexpected nasty surprises!
