That's the point and you're right. That's why BMW and several other manufacturers banned together to verify and certify those fuels that meet a certain level of performance and detergent content. That is what Top Tier Gas is all about. And like I said before, in addition to that gas, I add a bottle regularly and so I know at least I am doing my best to keep the car running good.
