thats a massive improvement right compared to ur previous FC of like ... full tank 270km ?

Still same traffic routine for this half tank 210km ?

Well, more of less the same. But included a few trip of LDP highway. During this tank of fuel, I really tried not to downshift my gears when I'm already in my 5th gear. I used to do that a lot in order to achieve a fast acceleration.
Well, light foot really helps, I guess.

Whoa..what have you been driving previously. A tank?
That's decent FC for 1/2 tank. I'm able to hit 250 for 1/2 tank, but a little ease of the throttle though smile.gif

One thing for sure, changing from 4G CITY to the current NHC is hard thing to do. The difference in gearbox tends to make you want to rev it more in this new CITY. Since the new city is a revable (elastic revving) instead of non-elastic revving gearbox (which the RPM will not drop until u let go of the accelerator) of the previous 4G.

Not sure whether my term used was right. But when you're already in ur 5th and u stepped ur accelerator deep to a extend, it will automatically downshift ur gear to 3rd, and causes (of cuz) the rev to be higher. And higher rev means heavy foot, indirectly means bad fuel consumption. ''S'' spec don't have paddle shifter.

Yes, Phil. I got that problem too. When I pump my tire pressure for the first time. The machine can't even detect. But Honda said it's normal during the 1st time.
