Premium Gas by kirkr

I have a 2006 325xi with 48,000 miles. I have always used premium gas (91 octane). Unfortunately, there is only one station remaining in my area in Iowa that sells non-ethanol blended premium. My question - Is it a problem using premium gas (91 octane) that contains a 10% ethanol blend?

Kirk

All cars from every manufacturer that sells cars in North America (BMW included) are designed to run with gasoline that contains up to 10% ethanol by weight (see page 169 in your Owner's Manual).

Shipo,
 
I was hoping you would respond. Thanks for the info. I would like to keep the car for 100k plus miles, since 90% of my driving are highway miles - nice paved county roads with very little traffic.
 
Regards,
Kirk

Thanks for the memories, I actually drove my 1970 Challenger (RIP) down some of those same roads in Nevada back in the later 1970s (oddly enough before I ever saw the movie).
 
While the 1970 in this comparison is one some serious steroids, I have absolutely no doubt that the new SRT8 would suck the doors off or my old car.
 
Best Regards,
Shipo

Geez, with that kind of driving I'm thinking that you'd be easily able to keep your car for an easy quarter of a million miles.

No one can stop the memories! Kowalski lives on! Super, Super Soul!
 
(Gotta love those Coronets and the troopers who obviously never attended a CCA course!)
