Unfortunatly I can only say it as I find it and I maintain that close friends and others vehicles that I have been in have been very unreliable and that based on this I would not buy or consider a conversion.

Due to the nature of my work I purchase my vehicle privately and then charge 45P for the first 10,000 miles and 20P there after (I do 15-25K a year).

If I thought I could buy an LPG equipped car and run it whilst claiming 45P a mile I would do so this afternoon.

Based on experience however I don't feel I can.

To me LPG is a somewhat niche offering which is really applicable to those with the knowledge and ability to run them, a personal interest and ability to work from home or get paid if they break down.

For the average person who runs a 2012 model car onwards (as I do) and who is not interested in tinkering they are not really a reliable product based on what I have seen.

The EML on is now an MOT failure despite assurances from an LPG owner on here that its not.

My post above was regarding someone looking into converting a 2018 model T6 and I voiced my opinion that this is likely more complex and involved than they may think.

Its not for me, if you have been successful and have not had EML on etc then that's great, I am happy for you.

Your story does not make sense and is confusing.

Are you saying you purchased a car with LPG already fitted and the EML is on and that is now a MOT failure?

If that is the case you are going all the wrong way about things. Myself and others could give you the right advice to sort the issue given some information. You have already been told numerous times that havingthe EML light on is not normal. Constantly banging on "LPG is sh1t" is not helping you or anyone else.


If your LPG issue is a current one try doing the same as anyone else and start your own thread with car and system details and we can start to help you
