what fuel do people use in their 182

[nobblebonce]

Does it really matter what fuel you use, ive read some people use v power, but can you just use normal pikey petrol (is it ron95 or something like that)

does using different petrol make that much difference.

 

[Se7en172]

I use normal shell unleaded, notice no difference at all

 

[Rich]

Optimax/V Power from new, as to making any difference I don't know for that reason.

But as the fuel flap says it needs super that's what it gets ...

 

[nobblebonce]

my dynamique says it needs super. but ive never used it lol

 

[Stuart182]

99 grade fuel, usually tescos. Mine tends to smoke when i boot it if im using anything else :rasp:

 

[Davey C]

I always used 99RON, normally tescos, however, i've now discovered i get better mpg on the poverty spec.

Anything higher ron a waste of money in a NA clio

 

[Beef-Mc]

My expression says unleaded, so thats what it gets.

Clio's are mapped for 98RON so anything higher is pretty pointless unless it's been remapped for it.

 

[W17GLE]

i get better mpg on 95 ron, i used to use 99ron but heard some bad stories about it and its stupidly expensive for the ammount of miles i do

 

[daydotz]

normal sainsburys derv ive run it on bt ultimate derv but i dont think i saw much diffrence

but ive just reailsed its about 182s

 

[FlameR]

used to use V power but refuse to pay 120.9p a litre for it. so bog standard 95 RON now

 

[nobblebonce]

thats it then ill just use normal tesco/ asda unleaded

 

[JoelDee]

I use the cheapest lol

 

[Christophe]

bet you have only been to fill up the once since new???

 

[peter_pan]

I use v power, it just feels smother and as more lower down torque. When I was running it on 95ron I was getting something like 25mpg I get 30mpg with v power.

 

[Iridium]

The Vee feels better on the more expensive stuff - so that's what it gets, and I do sod all miles anyway so it doesn't really matter heh.

98 ron on the flap i think refers to research octane number which is similar to 95 ron (road octane number) which is just standard unleaded.

read a thing somewhere that a lot of fuel companies deliberatly mix these two figures up to sell their "super fuels" apparently the 98 RON v power is the research figure not the road figure.

regardless of that i still use vpower it's only a couple quid more per tank

 

[Jon.L]

ethanol at times rapeseed oil

 

[Alan]

Sainsburys super, nectar points FTW!!

 

[Kiev85]

i siphon it from other clio's as we all know the clio "key" trick...


its cheaper that way...and gives you a right buzz...

 

[A13EX F Trophy No70]

clio key trick never knew that, i remember when i used have a ford used confuse my mate by locking his car with my key

 

[Jon.L]

diesel always gives the best performance. a right laugh!

 

[Naith]

95ron.. n im not too shabby

have put a tank or two of 98 and 99 through, didnt make much difference.

 

[karlos100]

n e thing above 95. lowest is jet i think at 97. id prob put 95 in if i had to....it does make sence in this stupid country with its stupid fuel prices.I cant believe how our government constantly takes the p*ss out of us all 24/7 and we just seem to take it!

V-Power as said before it gets what it says on the fuel flap.

 

[cal46]

[Dan172+]

I had mine custom live mapped for V power....then fuel prices shot up:dapprove: lol!

 

[DebV6]

BP Ultimate, I find it runs much better than it does on V-power
