One single issue cannot be isolated 'cause it's not the same thing that makes a GDI engine to act up when it's run pumping "Sri Lankan standard" fuel. Like you said, some say high sulfur content (Edit: fuel composition) leads to injector fouling and it results in pre-ignition in GDI engines, Some say pre-ignition and other issues of GDI engines is the result of lower octane fuel available in Sri Lanka.There are GDI vehicles running without a hiccup for years, and then there are GDI vehicles that have to be carried to the nearest garage every six months or so <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/yes.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":yes:" title="Yes    :yes:" data-shortname=":yes:" /> All in all, I wouldn't recommend a GDI to anyone in Sri Lanka <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/dull.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":dull:" title="Dull    :dull:" data-shortname=":dull:" /></blockquote>
