Not again.......but I. think the Proton figure there are realistic.11l/100km for the auto 1.3 in city drive.

Why people likes to measure FC by days?? 10 days you drive 1000km? Or drive 10km?? doh.gif... I parked my Inspira at home 1 week....0L/100Km!!!!

My mileage still sucks. Mileage is 12,800+ km

Still getting roughly 130 km for every RM 30 (RM 0.23/km). That's like what...roughly 8.23km/L

I drive like an auntie averaging at 55 kph at 2200 rpm in Penang also like that. Apala...

My bro's Mazda 6 2.5 SVT is doing RM 0.25/km  rclxub.gif  A 1.3L Campro's fuel consumption is so close to a 2.5L MZR engine. I think when the fella go overseas, I hijack his Mazda 6 la and boycott my Saga for few days.

How absurd. I want to show my "national pride" but my engine koyakla.

I think for city drive, 8km-9km/l is norm for auto Saga, my relatives also getting the same in City drive. Driving slow doesn't means will save fuel, it is driving optimally which will save fuel, around 75km/h -90km/h for most cars. In city drive, this is mission impossible.

Hi

wanna ask the sifu here... is this normal? Proton saga BLM Auto (reg around 2008/2009). About 40km will use up "1 kotak of fuel". 70+km will use up "2 kotak of fuel". Everytime I pump full tank. I service regularly ie 10000 will send to service centre[attachmentid=4059366]

This is another misconception to add to the other thread...how many kotak can jalan how many km...OMG...doh.gif

The picture shown means I have filled up fulled tank and then I reset the mileage to ZERO. And then the car drives for 70+ km and the petrol indicator shows the fuel.

Anyway, for any layman, if this is NOT the correct and sane way to measure how many KMs, I will need to go back to primary school. Thank you anyway for your kind advice and expertise.

As someone mentioned earliar, you need to refuel it, then only you will know how petrol is used. For example, now you go refuel until full tank. Say you pump in 10L, then 70.1km /10l= 7.1km/l.

So to get average, just drive until fuel light blinks (or sometime before that, don't drive until empty..not neccessary), then refuel to full tank. The distance travelled since your last reset divide by the full tank you have pumped will be your KM/L.

In traffic jam, you are basically going at 0km/l. Nothing can help. Except god-car. If drive god-car, no need to use fuel wan. laugh.gif
