Question

Currently running my my99 uk Turbo 2000 on Optimax, had the car now for a month. Not sure what the previous owner was running it on. My question is should i get the ecu reset to make sure its benefitting from 98ron? Can I reset it myself or is best to get a garage to do it? any other advice?

Thanks

Si

You don't need to reset the ECU just for that purpose. Your ECU should be able to learn what fuel you're using quick enough. If you want to reset your ECU anyway though, http://www.saxonfields.freeserve.co....htm#_ECU_Reset
