When is fuel cheapest in Sydney?
Sydney's price cycle is paused, with no regular price jumps lately (the last jump started Sun 17 May): its U91 prices are following wholesale costs and the recent trend, so they tend to move a week or two after the terminal gate price.
On Fri 13 Nov the national terminal gate (wholesale) price was 195.8 c/L and the Sydney city average 217.5 c/L, 21.7 c/L above it.
No weekday was the cheapest in most of the last 11 full weeks to : the U91 weekday averages in Sydney were within 0.6 c/L of each other once the overall price movement is removed.

How does FuelRadar make the forecast?
FuelRadar has helped Australian drivers find cheaper fuel since 2020. Each estimate starts from Sydney's reported daily city averages and how they have moved recently. A city daily average is FuelRadar's scheduled morning average of the city's reported station prices, the figure this page quotes for every capital. Where a city has a regular price cycle, the estimate projects that cycle; elsewhere it follows the recent trend, blended with the latest dated wholesale price change. Based on the Sydney U91 outlook, adjusted by 0.4 c/L using local price history. The likely range widens with each day ahead.
Next-day estimates missed by 0.6 c/L on average over the 30 days to 14 Nov, closer than assuming prices stay the same (1.0 c/L).

What is the best day to buy U91 in Fairfield West?
There is no fixed best day for Fairfield West. Compare current reported station prices and their update times. A recent high or a lower estimate does not confirm a cheaper date.
How accurate is FuelRadar Australia's U91 price outlook?
Not accurate enough yet to tell you to fill or wait, so we don't. From 16 Oct to 14 Nov our next-day U91 forecasts for Sydney were off by 0.6 c/L on average over 30 days checked. That beat assuming prices wouldn't move (1.0 c/L).
Do higher prices mean they will fall soon?
A recent high does not confirm a turnaround. Compare the reported movement with the estimated range. If that range still includes today's price, a fall is not established. Check current station prices before deciding to wait.
How often is the outlook updated?
We update the forecast overnight. For anything that changed today, check the map. While the update runs, we may show the previous forecast with its date.
