When is fuel cheapest in Sydney?
Sydney has no regular price cycle: its Diesel prices follow wholesale costs, 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 247.1 c/L and the Sydney city average 269.5 c/L, 22.4 c/L above it.
No weekday was the cheapest in most of the last 11 full weeks to : the Diesel weekday averages in Sydney were within 0.6 c/L of each other once the overall price movement is removed.

How we 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 Diesel outlook, adjusted by -3.1 c/L using local price history. The likely range widens with each day ahead.
Next-day estimates missed by 0.5 c/L on average, no better than assuming prices stay the same (0.6 c/L).

Forecast questions
When will Diesel prices go down in Long Jetty?
Estimate only: Diesel in Long Jetty is estimated to edge down about 5.9 c/L, to 258.3 c/L by Sat 21 Nov (likely 250.2–278.3), from 264.2 c/L estimated for Sat 14 Nov.

Check current station prices before changing when you fill.
What is the best day to buy Diesel in Long Jetty?
There is no fixed best day for Long Jetty. 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 Diesel price outlook?
Not accurate enough yet to tell you to fill or wait, so we don't. From 10 Oct to 8 Nov our next-day Diesel forecasts for Sydney were off by 0.5 c/L on average over 30 days checked. Assuming prices wouldn't move was just as close.
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.
