Anyone ever have bad gas in their car?
Just curious if anyone has had shit gas in their car and what the symptoms were.
I just got my car back from the dealer. When I brought it back for the paint chips the idiot tech put in my deck lid I told them about how my car has a hesitation when accelerating at low rpms (<2.2k). They said nothing is wrong and that the guy who drove it owns a 5th gen and said that's how they are. Which is complete bullshit, but before I call them out on that i figured I would ask the forums and drive it enough to get a fresh tank of gas in it. I had gotten the car back, drove it 40 miles home (noticed no issues, but was on cruise the whole way), went over it noticed the chips and scratches in my gauge cluster lens but didn't notice the hesitation. Woke up in the morning and stopped to get gas and went for a drive back to the dealer and shortly after I started noticing the hesitation. In 6th gear below 2k rpms it bucks ridiculously. I don't know how they could say they didn't notice anything.

No I filled it. With 93 from the same station I normally use. They are not a big gas station but right off the highway. Mobil station. I'm just curious to see if anyone else has experienced this. I'd like to chalk it up to bad gas and not another issue for the dealer to work out.

Yes, very bad Italian beef and sausage combo and then there was this turkey burger one time... Thought the EPA was going to send me a fine.

once. Brazilian steakhouse, me and a buddy driving my vw gti. had the seat warmers on. no lie, 6 months later, he borrows the car, turns on the seat warmers, you could very clearly smell the Brazilian steakhouse still. only smelled when the seat warmers were on. sold it on shortly thereafter.
