alot of the times the service drive advisors are not expirienced in cars, so they give out false information. Either that, or he porposely told him that so he could damage the engine and would be forced to repair it at the dealership. Nevertheless, thankfully he asked us and saved himself the headache.
Good info by the way sebba. teaches alot of new-bs about such a common problem.

Hi all, new to this forum, old in real life.  Just got an 07 GT, and before buying it I almost backed out because of the 92 octain. 3 different sales people went inside to talk to someone who "knew" and said that it was OK to burn regular, you would just loose 10 or15 HP. Bought the car and then read, duhhh, the manual. Ya can use regular if premium isn't available, but get preamium back in ASAP!!! Well I was pretty ticked about this, mostly at myself. BUT think about it. If I drive 10k miles a year, about right, and average 20 mpg, and premium costs $0.20 more, thats only $100 per year. Guess I'll stick to premium, but if I ever run into those salesman out on the street ------------------I'll probable uhhh do nothing.
