I knew someone would pull me up on the SUL recommendation and you were safe bet
I'd hate to have disappointed you

It shouldn't according to the manual, but it's slightly possible and an easy test. I run mine on 95, and have never noticed a difference when on 98 <stands back having re-lit blue touch paper>

I'll bite, when I had my Impreza mostly I ran it on 99 ron Tesco momentum, the odd few times I ran it on 95 it didn't tick over as smooth and definitely had less power , whether the turbo engine prefers the higher octane fuel compared to NA I don't know but when I get a Maserati I'll be running it on momentum
Given the low use of most of the cars on this forum compared to the garage bills £5 a tankful on premium fuel is worth it just in case it's doing something magic in the engine.

MAF is the culprit then.
Easy cheapish fix but still best to get the codes read to confirm.
Hi contigo, just did what you suggested and let the sensor outside hanging.. went for a short test drive and it absolutely seems like switched out!!!! genius! it runs very smooth and has a lot more power with higher revs but imust say i didnt go too high because it wasnt warm yet.. i think it had less power with low revs but runs very smooth instead.. no jittering at all. does this mean that that the maf is defective or it has to be cleaned? Or is it the air filter and it runs better because it can susck the air in from that small opening of the sensor? Thanks again!
