I think it is just a ploy by the oil companies to scare you in buying from them.

Supemarket fuel is of low grade and has added bio diesel like reclaimed oil.
Get two diesel cars and run them for 10,000 miles, one on Supermarket fuel and the other on branded like Shell or Esso.
Take apart the high pressure diesel pumps and notice the damage to the one that's been running on Supermaket fuel.
I've got a Mercedes S320 CDI and I wouldn't dream of using Supermarket fuel, I'd sooner drive the extra 5 miles to get a branded fuel.
I laugh when I see the ques at the local Tesco for so-called cheap fuel @ 2p cheaper a litre than a braned fuel up the road, all they are saving is 8p per gallon, 8p's worth of petrol isn't going to get them far.
