Which fuel do you use? - Page 2

Only 89? Where are you T?

The gas cap door has nothing to do with internals. It's like asking me if I have brake dust on my wheels. My owners manual says 87 can be used. I do not believe it contradicts the label on the inside of the door.

T is in WI.

"The gas cap door has nothing to do with internals. "



Yep, your right... we know nothing.

They just post "use 91 octane" to try to trick you.

sneaky Germans.

where in the onwer manual does it say 87 I know mine says 91

OWNER'S MANUAL 2001 AUDI A4 1.8L 4-CYLINDER & 2.8L 6-CYLINDER PAGE 195


"Your vehicle may also be operated using unleaded regular gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 87.

However, using 87 octane fuel will lead to a certain loss of engine power."

Crazyhawk, what are you "trying" to prove. Your car "may" run on lower octane gas that. Dude, learn to read, I never said it wouldnt run. We said it wasnt good for it to run that.... understand?

Damn......tricked yet again

My reply was to clconversion. I run 89, not 87.

Hey lol I'm not trying to be a dick I'm just letting you know what recommended let me know how much your engine in knocking in the next couple of years though I don't care sounds like a personal problem lol

I follow the same procedure as Vader, I use Sunoco 93, the APR 93 program, and whenever i'm around the shell station, i use v-power.

I just want all of you to know that I hate every last one of you that gets to use anything higher than 91!!

God damn the left coast!!!

shell V power for $2.29 a gallon i hate the cost of gas

Don't tell me that you think $2.29 is alot. It's up around $2.80 over here!!!

If you really want to try something fun try putting in 100 octane in your car. if its boosted you will notice a difference. the down side is were i live it is 4.50 a galon

4.50! you casn get it here at the gas station pumps for 2.25 you can get 104 too.

ya california gas prices r always more higher then here. But all in all gas sux, just think if u owned a Hummer H2, i think they get 9 miles to the gallon

I've found that 89 octane is overpriced in this area. I now put in 9 to 10 gallons of 93, then fill it up with 87. It should average out to 91 octane. With a Mobil speedpass it only takes a few seconds extra.

I do a lot of traveling so I use what ever is close when im on empty. But I do try to use the v-power, my car just runs awesome with that stuff.

i usually run 91 octane.

I have that message on my gas lid too... 91 Octane reccomended. I usually just run 91 because thats what they have but if not then i'll go with 93. i just filled up with 91 at $1.71 a gallon... Gotta love Iowa...

Shell V-Power Cleans intake and valve systems.Also gives more fuel efficiency

Not to resurrect this thread but talking about the WEST COAST and gas prices on crappy 91 oct. 3.00/gal. ..

Man .. I am thinking of selling all my cars and buy horses.. lol
