Fuel Passat VR6
My salesman told me VW recommends to use a premium gas in the 2008 vr6 passat but it will run okay using regular. Can anyone add to this and verify that using regular fuel would be ok for this vr6? I confused on which fuel to put in and with the high cost these days I would like to save some money but not at the cost of damaging my new vr6.
Thanks in advance to ALL who reply!

I think the salesman meant was that in a pinch you can use reg, but you should be using High test, that is what is recommended for your car. So in a pinch you can use reg, I wouldn't use it all the time, as it might hurt your warranty and you will notice some "preformance" will drop. With this car comes the "drain your wallet at the pumps" sorry about the bad news
