That could also be a sign that your car is made to run higher octane.
There are a lot of cars that say right inside the gas flap that they require higher than 87.
A low octane motor can run high octane fuel, but not the other way around. Lower octane will ruin a motor designed for higher and it will express itself in pings and knocks.
Yeah this happens like once a week in one of my owner's groups "does this car REALLY need premium?" and they get indignant when we respond with "what part of that 91 octane minimum marking on the gas cap do you not understand?"
