What grade gas do you use.
I have been using 87 grade for over 3+ years with no issues. 94k miles.
Anyone else use the low grade stuff? Figure I saved about $2500 in gas cost so far. |

93. Your car is probably pulling timing on 87, but it probably won't hurt anything. The engineers probably accounted for at least some amount of neglect.

premium. the manual says it will run on regular, but i noticed pinging occasionally while doing so, it's just not worth the potential hassle.

92 because that's what premium is local to the Seattle area. I haven't seen 93 around here although I am aware it's the recommended grade. When I did my road trip to Minnesota, I encountered a few scenarios where I was stuck with 87 or even fucking 85 because I was out in the middle of nowhere in Montana, on the fuel light, and had to stop at some local ma and pa gas station in a town with a population of like 200. Luckily I carried a gallon of 92 with me that I mixed with a few gallons of 85 to make ~87. Got back into civilization shortly after and found some 93.
I've never found any but I've been wanting to try 105, how does it run? You don't need a tune for that right? |

I don't think the OP understands what the numbers mean and feels that it is just a quality thing. It is not.
