not if you have a new engine management system on it because the exhaust sensor would not operate properly if its an old one you would be alright with 60% diesel and 40% veg oil i suggest mixing some in a container run the tank nearly empty and putting in only a few litres and running it it will be easier to pump out a few litres if you have to good luck

YES-but must be clean...mix 60/40 with diesel and enjoy the savings.be aware however that you will notice a new smell from the exhaust(like a chip shop)mates call my audi "crisp n drive!"

You can run lorries on rapeseed oil & diesel mix. So I dont know why any other diesel engine would be any different.

Should be ok, but you do need to do some chemical treatment of the oil as well as filtering it
