bdh1987 Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Hi guys, I have a shell card so i fill up at Shell all the time, just wondered if its worth getting the premium unleaded instead of the cheaper one. What are the differences? does it help maintain the engine etc? Also, would i be ok going from the cheaper one to the more expensive one? like, can you mix it? cheers guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellonman Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Its always best to get vpower if you have a jspec TT, as japan have 100 ron petrol and is mapped for that, but if I had a n/a or uk spec there is not much point unless bpu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyson Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Personally I would run a tank of vpower every now and then as the additives in the fuel clean the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Turism0 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 i use Tesco 99 and find the car runs much better than vpower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Tesco get's all it's fuel from Esso so any Esso garage will have the 99 RON fuel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbm Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Had my J-Spec tt 6 for 13 years now. I run it on the cheapest unleaded at the pump. She still pulls like a train and runs smoothly too. Tried the expensive stuff, couldn't tell the difference except to my wallet. Each to their own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
