Forester fuel
 

I'm thinking (quite seriiously now) about getting myself a new 2.5 forester XT, with all the talk about the fuel that should be used in our scoobs what's the score with a UK supplied forester, the dealer i mentioned it to said there should be now problem with regualr unleaded, would you all agree or should I be looking at SUL/octane boosters etc

A chap i work with has an X plate Forester Turbo.
He has had it from new, he uses what ever fuel is available.
Sometimes he uses Super but 80% of the time he uses 95RON fuel.

He tows his caravan with it 6 times a year and has never had a problem with it, no warranty claims, breakdowns, detonation etc etc.

However, he notices a difference in MPG depending what fuel he puts in. He says he gets better MPG when running it on super.

His is an automatic, so thats probably why.

sounds like the dealer was spot-on then.
