Okay another question.

Went to BP today to get petrol and they only have 91 and 98.I was expecting to see 95 somewhere lol but they didn't have it.Anyway I just put in 91 for this week cos I thought I'd come back here and see what you guys said cos you've been great so far.

I like going to BP cos I get the supermarket vouchers for 4c off as well as AA points and I can't afford my AA membership without those points.

So. 98!

98 will not do any harm

Or, if you can be bothered, you could fill with a mix of 98 and 91 at BP. Half and half will give you about 93.5 octane. I have done this occasionally as the cars don't like 91 but don't need 98 either at an extra 12c per litre.

Thanks John.

Papariccardo, I don't know any L per 100kms or anything, I can't afford to fill it with more than $25-30 per week lol.

I'll phone the other BP I know of and ask them if they have 95, if they don't I'll go with 98.

Thanks guys!

Message comes up 'This link is broken.' Looked on the back cover of the owners manual and there is an official looking red sticker which says NZ use 91 octane.
