Yeah. I was at Chevron today and saw that 10% ethanol sticker on the 91 octane and lower pump. The sticker on the 94 octane pump said no ethanol.

how long have they change 92 to 91 with ethanol at chevron? My fuel pump probably just died, getting massive shaking during cold start and fluttering rev....

heard the usa's ethanol maybe a cause for all the HPFP in the US forums?

I remember reading that BMW North America extended tne HPFP warranty to 10 years for the US 335i, what about Canada?

Same deal for Canada as far as i know. They repaced mine under a recall at the dealership not long ago, even though i was not having any problems with it.

Back to gas; i always use Chevron 94. For the few cents a liter difference, why take a chance?
