Kia Sportage 2007: Idle/rev problem

Fuel companies have warranties that provide cover in situations where poor fuel causes problems, but before you can even think about approaching the fuel company you need to establish that your problems are a result of poor fuel. You need to be able to identify the outlet you bought the fuel from, produce a receipt of some sort that verifies the purchase and then some evidence that proves the fuel was the culprit. I would certainly get another opinion.

Kia Sportage 2007: Diesel engine stalling issues

If the problem has been caused by bad fuel the repairs won’t be covered by the new-car warranty. While the fuel companies do have a warranty that would cover a problem caused by their dirty fuel it would be very difficult to prove it was the fuel in the first place, and it was a particular fuel company’s diesel that was the cause of the problem. I dare say you don’t have a sample of fuel you could have tested, or I’m guessing a receipt for the fuel you bought. It’s all too difficult. I would get another opinion before you spend the money on cleaning the fuel system.
