    Most engines will benifit from using Premium fuel anyway.

    When I have done the comparison between running regular vs premium it usually works out that although premium costs more, you get better economy so the $/Km works about about the same as running regular.
    Add to that a higher octane means a cleaner burning fuel which is good for your engine and it starts to make more and more sense.

    In short, run premium, you car will like it


    If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you. | Refer a Friend - AussieBroadband $50 Credit

    I personally try to use 98 whenever I can but depending on price at the time, i may turn to 95. I have put standard unleaded (91) in once but it really doesn't like it. you will get that pinging noise that has been spoken about in detail in another thread on this forum somewhere...

    it wont hurt it to try it once just to see what I mean, but it says on the flippy petrol lid "UNLEADED 95 ONLY" and I can definitely recommend 98.
