Check if your Lexus SC-430 can run on E10 petrol

Will my car be OK with E10 fuel?

If E10 fuel is put in an incompatible car, it will still run, according to the RAC, But in the long run, it could cause damage to rubber seals, plastics and metals. There have also been reports E10 is a less stable fuel, the RAC says.

Is E10 the same as 95?

Premium unleaded is both 95 and 98. The ethanol-blended E10 (a mixture of up to 10 per cent ethanol in petrol) is a substitute for 91 in most cars 2005ish or newer. However, it pays to check your user manual. Those numbers – 91, 95 and 98 – are the so-called 'octane rating' of the fuel.

Will E10 fuel be cheaper?

As you've likely surmised, this means that E10 fuel will yield slightly fewer miles per gallon than pure unleaded. However, E10 fuel does tend to be cheaper to buy, so while MPG might be down, cost per mile won't be. ... This makes traditional fuels as cheap as they can possibly be to produce.

Can you mix E10 fuel with unleaded?

Can I mix E10 and regular unleaded? Not like diesel and petrol, you can refuel with E10, regular or premium unleaded without any damage to the fuel system or engine.

Has anyony used E10 petrol it in a SC-430?

What does LEXUS say? 

I had a telephone conversation on the 02nd of September 2021 with the aftersales director at Lexus and his honest opinion was. Lexus doesn’t have sufficient feedback with their older engines and any long-term evidence to date. Nevertheless, to be on the safe side use E5 unleaded fuels if you have access to them or Premium unleaded fuels that safe to use. Me personally I only use premium unleaded like V-POWER/ PREMIUM TESCOS, 99OCT ESSAR I have used the new E10 by mistake, but I added as fuel additive just to be on the safe side that cleans and lubricate the fuel system.
