FUEL CONSUMPTION:

hI GUYS!(WTA) I'm driving a 2.0, mine in City drive is 11.7-13l/100km.....highway about 9-10l/100km.....

my mileage now is 2.3 k plus after 1st service.... any good way to save fuel? i tried both 95 & 97 ,..... about the same full tank RM82 on Ron95, RM93 on Ron97..... both also around 440km plus +/- to empty.

btw! i've tried b4 the DTE while below 50km ,.. it'll go --- n keeps blinking till ur heart drop out even though i know i can last for bout more 50km i guess that is the only best part u'll never know wen it'll stop! if u don't feed em!


Cheers mate!

Welcome to the club !!

Most important principle in fuel-saving : FC is the most dependent on your right foot.
Your FC seems slightly high but it might still in the early stages. FC usually improves after a few more thousand kms. Generally speaking for the 2.0, highway FC should be around 7-8L/100km; whereas in stop-start city driving 11-13L/100km is expected, with the latter more common if you keep getting stuck in jams.

Try using the shiftronic mode and learn the optimum rpm for gear changes. More fun, and if you shift correctly you'll utilise the power of the engine better instead of lugging around all the weight with obvious torque losses.

I'm occasionally heavy sometimes but not tat bad la,... drive city around 70-90kmh,... i guess i should try on shifttronic.... i'm hoping for better fuel efficiency after a few more thousand KM... thanks

Just imagine..you unlock all your doors just to get down your car..suddenly someone jumps in the front passenger side and drives off your car..so with this system..you just open your driver side door or front passenger side door without unlocking the whole car! smile.gif makes sense? Haha much more convenient too tongue.gif
*
acceptable in ur point of view but like i said wen i tot it was an issue but i guess it's not anymore ,.. u guys had been utilizing the door locks well,..but still beware as it can be open even if d car is running,...mayb tis is a safety feature for kidnapping, u may jump of the car at anytime time !! lol tongue.gif
