The most is they change addatives...... Or someone can show some proofs that Petronas change their refinery setup recently.....

same 1 la
marketing tactic
if ron 95 can achive ron 97 performance then why sell ron 97 ????
logic 101

That's because a lot of people know nuts about petrol and the specs with it...... Is a petrol's performance are based on RON only? If the answer is yes, then please continue to support blindly..... This is not refering to you.....

i think the petrol stations already loaded with this new grade, guess u can even try it now, no need wait if you want to smile.gif

Loaded? Are you sure? To put in "new" petrol, some flushing needs to be done and depending greatly on that particular station... If the sales volume are high, it will be faster, else it will be slower.... As any addatives are dopped on terminals, not at the station....

Your rims bigger = rims heavier..
Rims heavier = need more power to roll..  icon_rolleyes.gif

To make it as a more stupid term, smaller rim = more rubber on tyre = car "lighter"
bigger rim = less rubber on tyre = car "heavier"
When changed the rims, the mileage won't be accurate sometimes. But you still can roughly calculate the FC based on your experience. Like 1 week you drive about 500km and need 40L of petrol on your original rim. After change to bigger rim, with similar mileage, you only can last about 6 days and need to refuel.

If you really got water in your petrol, you won't know.....
But when it reach certain % over petrol, it will really affect your engine....
Fact is, Shell and Petronas using the same terminal.... So petrol are the same only addatives different...
Suggest to add alcohol to remove any suspect water in your fuel tank.

You should get the Petronas fuel + Petronas addatives......
Not Shell fuel + Petronas addatives....
Remember, both are sharing the same terminal.... In Dengkil....

Nope, you need to test it out again after 1 month or more, depending to the sales volume on the particular station... Then follow by flushing your fuel system for 4-5 times to get better review....

I will wait until August and test again... Heard petronas shutdown to do maintenance..... So the petro maybe imported...
Using the imported sure can get +ve feedbacks while using the local sure can get mixed feedbacks....
