I use Sainsburys Super unleaded when doing the motorway miles to work and back (mainly because I pass the garage on the way) and find it fine. I also used it in my old Ibiza for the samw reason..

I do use V-Power normaly though, always have done  :smiley:

Mine doesn't really care it just likes any.  :ashamed:

Having said that though it seems better on the V-Power or Tesco Finest despite the inside of the fuel cap saying 95.

Based on the appetite yours must have for the juice its probably not that picky  :wink:  Think its just the TFSI's that were tuned for the higher grade fuel

Mine feels more punchy on tesco 99 / momentum but had some issues with coil packs and was fearing injectors so went back to v power for its cleaning potential.

Car ran perfect for a few months (after i changed coil packs) and then I put a tank of tesco 99 in, within a 100 miles I had some misfires/spluttering.  Back to v power and it has been perfect ever since (touch wood) :happy2:

I hear what you are saying.  :laugh:

Bizarre as it may seem though I went to an R32OC RR day and the ones off colour had 95 or even 97/98 in the tank.  :wink:
