Recently in Ireland they changed the petrol from e5 to e10 .. my car is listed as not compatible with e10 petrol .. what can go wrong if I will fill the car with e10 petrol as I can't find any station with e5 petrol anymore?

Lexus Is 250 .. from early 2007..

 

Thank you

Is it Lexus telling you the car is not compatible, or a 3rd-party list? Here in the U.S. cars have been compatible with E10 for many years and even most earlier vehicles have not experienced serious problems.

Lexus 2007 IS 250 owner's manual

Chapter 6 Specifications:

Lexus allows the use of oxygenate blended gasoline where the oxygenate con-
tent is up to 10% ethanol or 15% MTBE.

I wouldn't worry about it.
