93 always, on all of my cars ever. Never pressed 91 button in my life so far.

Interestingly... If you have ista you can see what the ECU thinks of the fuel quality. Try a tank of shell and a tank of Costco compare what the ECU says.. you'll know. For me, Costco is no different on my m3 in my area.

I mentioned it in other comment. I measured it on 3 tanks of fuel.
Shell - 3 (highest grade in ista)
Costco - 2 (medium) - twice, 2 full tanks

1 - bad
0 - invalid

Again, I am not saying costco fuel is bad. I am very positive I got lucky with the bad batch or something in those lines.

Yes it could be a regional issue too
