[QUOTE="Lootz, post: 175942, member: 5522"] Wrong octane level from say 87 - 93 won't turn on the MIL BUT overfilling will. Wrong octane usage is more of a long game killer and will eventually cause misfires and a rough running engine. Hopefully whoever filled up the car stopped at the second click of the pump and didn't "Top it up". By topping it up you can actually fill the carbon canister with raw fuel and that can be sent through to your vent shut valve and bypass. If the system cant "breathe" properly it can throw a code. After driving it for a bit the level has obv gone down and that might be why the tests are coming up problem free. Either way, nothing to worry about. Super annoying after 4 days for sure, hopefully you'll be cruisin problem free this weekend Dale. [/QUOTE]
