Default Which gas company???
Hello A4 owners. I'm considering getting my own gas card, but I don't know which to choose from. My family's been using union76 = official fuel of nascar!, but I don't know how they differ from other companies. Please enlighten me! Thankies!

Haha, are you from Persia or something. Gas must be really good over there! Anyhow, thanks for the quick response!

Default hehe. never used race fuel before?
from what I hear, it's worth it if you have the ECU that can compute it.

The base gasoline is same for all brands. It's the additive that differentiates the companies.

Default my engine's been making a very mild "klinking" sound since I autoX'd on some 105. hopefully it will
go away when I put some slower gas in. I don't see how high octane would make the engine ping, should be the other way around =\.
