guys guys, i hate my FC, but i always drive at 2000 RPM, even when accelerating...
if i use the cruise control when accelerating it will go to 4000RPM until i reach my desired speed, which is usually 70kmh, top gear, 2000RPM have i been making a mistake? since it is a high rev engine should i accelerate at high rpm and cruise at low RPM? thanks |

wah so cheap ok.
anyway, i stopped using petronas ron95 my engine became too heavy and the mileage getting worse, from 8.5L/100KM to 9.5L/100KM using shell now and so far so good. fill up only RM50 to cut cost so there's no way to check the mileage  |

QUOTE(xandras @ Aug 23 2011, 02:24 AM) Yeah. Don't go adding all the magnacrap & stuffs, it's gonna cost u up to RM 70 extra. Just decline everything politely & get the most basic service they have to offer. Ur total service cost together with the engine oil cost that u brought urself shouldn't exceed RM 120. i was using Magnatech 10W-40 for my 1K service like you all recommended Added on August 23, 2011, 2:25 amAnother point may also be ur service is due soon, that's why ur FC is increasing. What engine oil u used for 1st 1k km service?   so what is the latest finding on fuel? can you make me a summary? cant be canvassing the threads and postings, there are tons of them i recall petronas = best mileage, lame power caltexd = best power, mileage ok shell = sh1t? etc. |
