I don't think it's good for the car and even when I put it in Eco mode I turn that feature off. I also use gas that has no ethanol in it. In Canada our Shell stations do not contain ethanol in the Super. While in the USA the Shell stations have a disclaimer at the pump that mentions that there may be up to 10% ethanol. I don't like ethanol as it causes carbon deposits in direct injection engines and can gum up injectors. Stay safe and healthy everyone.
