[QUOTE="mnas, post: 374498, member: 4042"] seriously i think the marketing for RON 95 is overly done.. don't u think we hv been short-changed as we've been using RON 97 and suddenly had a step backward with the RON 95 ? i experienced lack of power and jerking with RON 95 on my E90 325 and E81 120....not to mention the degradation of fuel economy. Gonna change back to RON 97 or even RON 98 in S'pore. technically speaking, with RON 95, for example, Petronas just add less of MTBE (which is the anti-knock agent) than RON 97. thus, u will get a less stable petrol with higher tendency to 'knock', though not that significant as our modern engine adjust the timings accordingly.
