Hi yes you can run your car on bio diesel and it doesn't affect the performance of the car. we have a Volvo v40 1999 & v40 2001 running on 100% bio diesel.

But you will have change your fuel filter once you have done 200 miles which cost about £7 for replacement part and take 10 mins to change and you can use a oil filtyer remover tool to get it off. it is located under the bonnet on the passengers side at the back at the botttom screwed on side ways and it sshould be white in colour. as the bio diesel will break down the residue left from normal diesel in the fuel filter which could block the fuel pipes and injectors.

That's all you will need todo to run your car on 100% bio diesel.

Hope this helps

It's advisable to stick with conventional diesel fuel if you have the diesel variant or gasoline for the gasoline variant.

Why biodiesel is not used commercially?

Because its disadvantages far outweigh its advantages. ULSD motors require expensive conversions to run on biodiesel (contrary to what seems to be popular belief, you don't just pump biodiesel into any ULSD motor without conversion), and it doesn't perform as well as ULSD #2 does.
