Helpful Expert Reply:
Running higher octane fuel than required for a vehicle won't harm it or hurt it at all. If the vehicle runs fine on regular octane fuel there would be nothing gained by running premium.
Now if you went the opposite direction there would be trouble. If you run lower octane fuel than what a vehicle calls for you will cause damage to the engine due to spark knock.
