AUDI DRIVERS - super or premium?

Postby silverfire » January 28th, 2013, 3:17 pm

Hey guys, I'm considering getting a Audi Q3 2.0L and I've been hearing mixed stories about using Super or Premium. ONe agent is saying that Super worked for him for the past 4 years as it did for others without any problem. Other agents are saying it may cause problems...can anyone tell me of their experiences????? Thanks.

2.0T engine has a high compression ratio. Chances are it needs RON 95 as minimum. The Tiguan which comes with the same engine requires a minimum of RON 95 as well so premium for it.

Super can be used, however the difference in performance between super and premium in my opinion is not worth it.

Not sure bout the info there bro...but compression is 10:5:1....though those engine resistant somewhat to knocking...if driven for long periods on the wrong fuel will wreak havoc to that engine...plus I think those are direct injection afaik...premium or nothing

Check the manuals when you go to view.
Generally Premium is recommended, but some models like the A6 have the detuned 2.0T (180hp) and may work with Super.. not sure about Q3.

2.0T needs 95 octane.

The 211hp or the 180hp? I know they bring both to trini in different vehicles.
Drove a 180hp last mth...been a long time since I was as disappointed with an engine as that.
