QUOTE(Lineage @ Nov 22 2011, 07:22 PM) I guess my fuel low indicator light burn..it didnt show up when it only left 3 litres.. Next time try go 'just' below that lowest line to see if low fuel indicator lights up ?[attachmentid=2548474]   Wira is 50L tank. I used to drive until low-fuel lights always on. Then refill between 39L-45L. Can go 460km in KL city centre driving most of the time. If highway, 490-510. 4G15 GLi manual. |

QUOTE(e_necro @ Nov 20 2011, 02:27 PM) hi Sifuz, IF U ARE INTERESTED, i m letting go my adjustable.. I need your advice. Am currently driving a 1.5GL .. early this year i changed my rims to a 195/55/15.. and recently, i noticed that each time i fetch ppl at the back, the spacing between my wheel and the wheel arch is only 1finger.. if 2 bigger size passengers sit, even without moving, you will know it'll surely scrap the arch if on the move d. So now, i'm thinking of changing my rear springs & abs as it's been a while d.. went to the shop, the guy recommended me to change front and rear to 1.6's springs. said is stiffer.. But what i read is that if 1.5GL use 1.6 front springs & abs, the front will be higher as the engine is lighter than 1.6.. I duwan my car too high though :S So now i'm having a dilemma, 1. sud i change front to 1.6 springs? 2. rear 1.6 springs more stiffer but same height, is it true? Or can you guys tell me ur experience and what springs you use to overcome this issue? Budget is normal springs, fren suggested adjustables, but too exp :S Thanks sifuz !  QUOTE(Lineage @ Nov 23 2011, 07:17 AM) 40-42L haha, an advice to u, if u drive in kl.. try to make sure that ur fuel lvl is always 1 bar above, in case jam n u stuck in the middle of road due to run out of petrol  I thought Wira 40L fuel tank only  Mine 37L already at E..somemore yesterday jam..damn tension  anyway.. i got the same thinking with u.. i thought wira only 40L.. haha.. but suprisingly it was 50L @_@" QUOTE(cute_boboi @ Nov 23 2011, 12:33 PM) Next time try go 'just' below that lowest line to see if low fuel indicator lights up ? my 4g92p auto gving me 10.9km/L for highway drive from Klang to ipoh then penang.. Wira is 50L tank. I used to drive until low-fuel lights always on. Then refill between 39L-45L. Can go 460km in KL city centre driving most of the time. If highway, 490-510. 4G15 GLi manual. but when i drive in city, i only manage to get 6.1km/L... lastime i thought Q8 semi oil do give me better fc..but in fact, its not much diff.. zzz  |

There is no comparing the 1.5L auto (3 gear) with other auto or manual gearbox. It 'makan' a lot of fuel.

Gonna test it again..but with spare petrol in car Before I get my 1.5GLi, I loaned an old 1.6XLi auto gearbox for few months (4 gears + OverDrive?). I can tell you the fuel consumption is REALLY bad. I get about 6-7km/L, which my 1.5GLi get 12-14km/L Why jeolous? I found it high FC But AhKoo driving Wira 1.6 with 4 speeds gearbox And I am not even heavy-footed on the XLi at that time. I would rate this 1.6XLi gearbox as same 'makan minyak' as the 1.5 auto-box. For those curious to know how much fuel is left when you reach that bottom bar for Wira, ... YES, it can go much lower than that. I've shared/posted it before. Refer Post #2388 in previous thread of (LYN-PWC) V-XXVI  |
