unleaded 98 ron

Post by RS4mark » Fri Sep 14, 2007 5:55 pm

Hi,

I would like to know that is it ok to use BP Ultimate unleaded 97 ron on RS4?

Of Course, i'm sure that Shell v-power is the most suitable for RS4 as it's 99 ron.

To be honest, they are both good to use in the RS4. BP ultimate 97 is quite good and the shell v-power stuff does the job nicely as well. I recall some people on here have mentioned that Tesco 99 isn't very good, but who knows. All in all, you'll be fine using bp ultimate 97 or the v-power.

Regards,

AL

Tesco 99 works for me.

But I like to mix up the fuels I use...Shell one time, BP the next, Tesco the next, Sainsburys next etc etc.

I normally use V-Power now but I used to regularly use Tesco 99 with no problems.

The only time I've ever had a problem was when I filled with Premium 98 (NOT 99) at the Tesco at Brackley - until I re-filled I had cold starting problems. I'll never touch that again!
