Great. I come back from 2 weeks in the sun and some chimp is comparing my car to an O-My-God-A. More Chardonnay required. And I'll keep reading. And hey, thanks for jumping to my defence, folks !

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Sorry Greg. I thought he must be a mate of yours. As he drives an MGF I thought perhaps the pair of you had met down the salon. :lowblow:

Excellent holiday thanks DeR - walked away from a house purchase as it would have meant too much of a lifestyle change. Another year, for sure. Great weather (apart from the last day), good company, nice birthday, another watch, more clothes, suntan. The usual, really ! Still trying to catch up. Imelda, I'll deal with you later ! Nice to see you looking at a Porsche board though....!

*lol* Sorry, didn't wanted to insult your car. It was just that I knew an explanation for the phenomenon you posted "better MPG (don't ask me why)" and I thought you would be pleased to know why. It burns cleaner, more effective. I mentiond the BMW and the Omega because I (personally) experienced these phenomenom with both cars, and while the one was able to adapt it automaticcally the otherone needed a helping hand. So, in your case, I would ask somebody knowing Porsches if it is ok. The better MPG Value indicates that it is, but it can't harm to ask. By the way, neither a BMW 850CSI nor a Lotus Omega are soooo bad car's to be compared with. Best Regards Newro..

The more Octan it got, the cleaner it is burning. On the not so good side, it burns a little bit hotter (nothing to worry about) but the electronic injection should be adapted to it as well. I know from the BMW's that they do that automaticly, but don't ask me about Porsche. Funny thing, my Omega has a turn around chip. When I drive it with 93 Normal, it needs that ammount of gas more then it is cheaper then 95 Super. On the other hand, with 95 Super or 98 Super Plus it simply goes like stink!! (relativ for an Omega)
