I am using shell optimax at the moment and thinking of changing to BP ultimate. Is there any bad because i have used shell ever since....

I only ever use Optimax or Ultimate and if i'm desperate MOBIL Synergy..... i think from memory all the other premium fuels have only 95octane not 98 like the ones i just mentioned.

You hear of people talking about differences between Optimax and BP in their cars, But try it out and see for yourself..... Changing fuels from optimax to BP wont do any harm, so give it a go :)

I only ever use Optimax and Mobil. BP gave me very poor performance and fuel eceonomy.

My adive is try all 3 for your car and not rely on what works better for other peoples cars.

I prefer Ultimate from BP, you can really feel the throttle response after running the car for a few Kms, Optimax kinda "cleans" the engine instead but ti's all just down to personal opinions and choices..

CHEERS

Ultimate is my first choice, followed by Synergy 8000. I won't put Optimax in my car unless I'm really desperate.. .the new blend is crap and it seems to have a dirty burn to it - it's especially good at dumping carbon out the tailpipe.

optimax causes the exhaust to get black really quickly
ultimate is good but sometimes its no different to the regular unleaded..??
this if for a dc5 auto
