I have just had my PEF additive reservoir replaced on my diesel SUV and was amazed to be charged £128 + VAT for a litre of EOYLS fluid to fill the new tank. Naming no names of course but a quick search on the internet would suggest that a litre of the stuff can be purchased for something around £40 and so I would like to know what is going on here. Before taking it up with my garage I would be interested to hear if anyone else has had any simlar experiences to draw upon.

Main dealers charge outrageous prices for engine oil too.

Depending on the car sometimes it's not a case of refilling the tank but replacing it whole; it's not intended to be replenished on some models.

Spelling error - I think the name of the fluid should read EOLYS

Now I get it.

EOLYS is injected into fuel tank to clean up emissions and is used predominantly by PSA ( Citroen/Peugeot), Fords with PSA developed engines and some Volvo's. It raises the combustion temperature of particles to help with re-generation and clean the injectors, raised combustion temps are critical to burn off excess particles.
