What Type of Gasoline Should a BMW 1 Series Use?

It is recommended to use 95-octane gasoline for the BMW 1 Series. Gasoline Grade Selection: Common gasoline grades in China mainly include 92-octane and 95-octane. The gasoline grade indicates the octane number, where a higher octane number means better anti-knock performance. Diesel grades differ from gasoline, as they represent the freezing point. Refueling Precautions: Avoid waiting until the fuel warning light comes on before refueling. The fuel pump is located inside the fuel tank and operates at high temperatures when running continuously. Being submerged in fuel helps cool it effectively. When the fuel light comes on, it means the fuel level is below the pump. Consistently waiting until the light appears before refueling can shorten the fuel pump's lifespan. Having too little fuel or running out can also burn out the pump. Extra caution is needed if the vehicle has been driven over 30,000 kilometers. If the fuel pump draws up sediment from the bottom of the tank, it can easily clog the pump or block the fuel line.
