Visitor, February 21, 2011, 10:41ReplyThis vehicle is very picky with the gas that you use in it. I would only use Super from either Chevron, Shell or QT gas stations. Most other fuels do not have the correct conditioners etc to run properly. I made the mistake of running fuel from Costco for a while when I first purchased mine and had decreased power and pinging in my engine. Took it into the local BMW dealer and was told to only use the fuels I listed above. I changed over and have not had an issue since.
