catalytic converter.

Do not fill the tank with E85, i.e. fuel containing

85% ethanol, nor with FlexFuel. Otherwise the

engine and fuel supply system will be dam-

aged.<

Required fuel

Super Premium Gasoline/AKI 91

This gasoline is highly recommended.

However, you may also use gasoline with less

AKI. The minimum AKI Rating is:

> 128i: 87

> 135i: 89

If you use gasoline with this minimum AKI Rat-

ing, the engine may produce knocking sounds

when starting at high outside temperatures.

This has no effect on the engine life.

Do not use any gasoline below the speci-

fied minimum fuel grade. Otherwise the

engine could be damaged.<

Use high-quality brands

Field experience has indicated significant dif-

ferences in fuel quality: volatility, composition,

additives, etc., among gasolines offered for sale

in the United States and Canada. Fuels contain-

ing up to and including 10Ξ ethanol or other

oxygenates with up to 2.8 Ξ oxygen by weight,

that is, 15Ξ MTBE or 3Ξ methanol plus an

equivalent amount of co-solvent, will not void

the applicable warranties with respect to

defects in materials or workmanship.

The use of poor-quality fuels may result in

driveability, starting and stalling problems

especially under certain environmental condi-

tions such as high ambient temperature and

high altitude.

Should you encounter driveability problems

which you suspect could be related to the fuel

you are using, we recommend that you respond

by switching to a recognized high-quality brand

such as gasoline that is advertised as Top Tier

Detergent Gasoline.

Failure to comply with these recommendations

may also result in unscheduled maintenance.<
