Also, the mechanics at the dealership can tell if you've been running the improper octane, I don't know if they'll complain if you're running higher octane in a v6, but you'll have warranty issues if you run 87 or 91 in a v8.

YOu will never get in trouble from running a higher octane, but you will running a lower, I started using 91, and the car seems more powerfull, could just be wishfull thinking, but hey I'll side with the GM engineer lol
