[QUOTE="Schwepps, post: 396556, member: 3592"] Turbos usually need higher octane, but is it stated in your manual/petrol filler flap that it must be 97? If not, the only thing that will happen is that there may be knocking and your piezo mic anti-knock sensor will pick it up, and your ECU will retard the timing. Even a buddy driving a Cayenne Turbo found that he can use 95, and so he's also enjoying the govt subsidy for daily city driving. :) [/QUOTE]
