I've been using Tesco supermarket fuel for many years now. Never had a problem.

Granted that's mainly been their petrol, but I've now had my Astra 2.0 CDTi for nearly 5 years, and that's been exclusively run on Tesco diesel. Again no issues other than a failed glow plug early in its life.

I personally avoid Tesco's purely due to the contamination issues they've had with the diesel, to point it was killing engines.

I always used to run on Sainsburys fuel but since moving to the likes of BP & Shell the car does less regens and the prone senor on the DPF seems to be lasting.

Touch wood, no problems so far in 48,000 miles of motoring using only Tesco diesel. Mine regens at around every 380 to 500 miles. Longest stint was 680 miles.
