BP dodgy fuel
You can fight BP, but at the end of the day I doubt that you would get anywhere. If you want to mount a case you would need to have proof of everything you, and your helpers, did from the time you filled up. Really, it's a case of 'you say, they say'. Who's to say which one of you is right. What it does say is that the so-called guarantees offered by the fuel companies are meaningless.

The correct inflation pressure is contained on the sticker attached to the car and in the owner's manual. I would think 280 kpa is too high.

Honda CR-V: Correct tyre pressure?
It's quite often recommended to run tyres at a higher pressure than the carmaker specifies. It's ok to do that within reason, but I think 40 psi is way too high. I imagine it rides like a dray at that pressure. I would suggest you try around 32 psi, it should handle better and give you better fuel economy without the deterioration in ride.
