QUOTE(davidlow7 @ Mar 29 2014, 11:52 AM) My friend's 2009 Saga BLM 1.3 managed only 9km/litre mixed driving... terrible FC but it was already since day 1 he bought the car... i still follow saga fc threads since i got the blm auto in 2008. mileage now 50k. full city driving but heavy foot. mileage been always the same for last 5 years ... rm50 for 150km or 23.8 litres for 150km or 6.3km per litre if i use caltex mileage drops below 135km anyone got worse than my fc? sigh sigh ...

QUOTE(davidlow7 @ Mar 29 2014, 04:54 PM) That's really terrible.. I would sell the car without hesitation unless your usage (mileage wise) is superb light use... 1 day only run 5km to go across the street buying some thing.. For normal use.. it would incur much cost compare to buying a newer car with better enjoyment. i agree. my friend who bought it in 2009 also same fc. i sent back to service centre many time earlier in 2008/9but cant do much. sc staff told me they recd several complaints also. |

QUOTE(dares @ Mar 30 2014, 12:58 AM) 6.3km/l is ridiculous, even for a CamtakPro Saga BLM AT. It is definitely not normal. r3apersbro. it is ridiculous as u had replied me in other fc threads. i sent back to sc many times for 'tuning' and still cannot improve on fc. i remember the first rm50 petrol in 2008. tank went empty after hitting 220km (old petrol price then) and i thot something bocorrrr!!

QUOTE(dares @ Mar 30 2014, 11:52 AM) As mahihi has mentioned, use a vacuum meter to monitor your driving habits. If you are in KL, come join our TT on Fridays so we can help you check if there is anything wrong with your car. Maybe your petrol tank leaking kot  aiya. me in ipoh. will try join u people when i m in KL. thanks. i hv been checking petrol tank or other possible leaking. but so far engine bay is clean n dry....feel like feeding a huge lorry. haha |
