I just noticed this sticker on my gas tank cover on my X5M60i. Anyone got any explanations? Just curious.
minus-squareBusterlimes@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoYeah, but Shell premium is generally better than other fuels. It creates more horsepower, and is presumably a cleaner fuel. HotRod Magazine does an independent test on an engine dino every few years and Shell Vpower premium always wins out.
minus-squareboreal_ameoba@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoShell and Sunoco pretty regularly beat out others. It only really matters if you’re running a tuned car, but there’s a noticeable difference.
minus-squareFew-Swordfish-780@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoOh agreed. Just with they had higher than 91 octane here.
minus-squarenavigationallyaided@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoAround here, Chevron tends to be the best.
