mozkan Posted October 11, 2004 Posted October 11, 2004 Hi, I have a new C5 SX 2.0i BVA car (not the new style). I live in Turkey and we have two types of gasoline: 95 and 98 octan... Which one should I prefer, I wonder whether the engine is ? (95 is cheaper offcourse) Quote
pork_pie Posted October 11, 2004 Posted October 11, 2004 98 octane is only beneficial in high performance engines. Some engines can only take 98. Using 98 in other engines brings no real benefits apart from burning a slightly bigger hole in your wallet. Stick with the 95. Quote
n_olympios Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 However, it has been known in several occasions that the actual octanes are far less. For example, the 98oct gas is about 94 and the 95 one is somewhere near 92. Better safe than sorry. :unsure: Quote
