Added on May 15, 2011, 12:59 amjust back from Genting. close shave with an empty fuel tank today. right after gombak toll, range says 80km left. no problem i thought. reach the top only pump. as i go up the range estimation goes down alarmingly quick and when i rolled into esso at the top the range was showing zero with the fuel gauge at rock bottom. the car managed to drink up 53.xxx litres of fuel. considering full tank is 55 litres, talk about cutting it close sweat.gif

there's a petrol station at the top of genting?

wow means at 0km range the petrol is 2L or less?
*
yea...kids don't try this at home...less than 2L blush.gif

never thought from 80km estimated range it can go all the way to zero. petrol consumption must be quite intense going uphill, what with a super+turbocharger engine.

yeah my range also drop like no tomorrow while climbing genting(while going down the range increase again as the slope makes the reading of fuel level wrong)
using manual gear and redlining
and still old 90s nissan sentra taxi can keep up not too far
i am noob and they have experience going up down everyday lol

next time will try only D mode
*
haha i paddle shift all the way down. was more fun going downhill. probably i wasn't as stressed as going uphill with one eye monitoring the dropping fuel gauge wondering if i can reach the petrol station at the top or will be stranded halfway up. sweat.gif
