That is definitely an option...if I weren't averse to spending more than I need to.
Accidentally topped off my tank with 7 gallons of 87 octane instead of 91 (highest available).
Should I get some octane booster or just drive around like normal and burn through it?
Car/engine is stock.
Thank you. I’ve been running 91 since I got it a few months ago. Thought that’s what it requires but I guess 87 is fine tooWith everything stock, it's a complete non-issue. Pretty sure it even says 87 on the gas cap.
He is correct. GTI is rated for 87. Says right on your gas cap cover door. I've always run premium for the increase in power but the car is stock tuned for 87Thank you. I’ve been running 91 since I got it a few months ago. Thought that’s what it requires but I guess 87 is fine too

You're wasting money. The car runs just fine on 87
Here’s one for you car detailing fanatics. I just moved to a snowy climate for the first time. Whats the best way to brush off snow from the car? I caught my wife in the middle of taking a kitchen broom to it and I nearly fainted. I told her to just get snow off the windows and leave the paint alone. ?

Do not turn this into another octane thread. Yes the car runs fine on 87. Yes it runs with more power on 91. User preference.
