Can the Volkswagen Sagitar 1.4T use 92-octane gasoline?
1 Answers
Volkswagen Sagitar 1.4T can use 92-octane gasoline, and the specific reasons are as follows: 1. For vehicles equipped with Volkswagen's 1.4T turbocharged engine, the manufacturer recommends using 95-octane gasoline, with 92-octane gasoline as an alternative. The impact on the engine will not be significant. However, long-term mixed use is not recommended, as it may lead to severe engine carbon buildup and issues like knocking. 2. The difference between 95-octane and 92-octane gasoline is not about the quality of the fuel. A higher octane number does not necessarily mean better gasoline quality; it only indicates higher anti-knock performance. 95-octane gasoline's anti-knock performance is equivalent to a standard fuel containing 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane, while 92-octane gasoline is equivalent to a standard fuel containing 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane.
