Oo.. Maybe yours is because have some city driving + extra passengers.. My extra weight is only due to nescafe + redbull.
I assume that you didn't on the air con since you grab a smoke during the journey.-+♦+- LYN PROTON PERSONA CLUB V29 -+♦+-, The last thread for 2011

I think it's normal, travelling at constant 120kmh, you don't really burnt a lot of fuel. No acceleration, just maintain. Lol... so no assuming.

Regarding about glass compound.. ada link? Supposedly 5 years warranty. Very attractive info. Personally I'm on Magic Glare. Abt 1.5 to 2 years warranty. May not be as lasting as Sierra but I've been on it for 6 years with abt 3-4 re-applications. |

QUOTE(ZeroSP @ Dec 29 2011, 03:47 AM) Thats y buy PE and tint it dark.. Can carry a lot of chicks in car with total privacy. QUOTE(abong8 @ Dec 29 2011, 03:58 AM) Just reached Johor Bahru from Penang.. This time I use caltex.. I fueled up just before I enter the highway, and set auto cruise at slightly below 120km/h so that the rpm ngam2 @ 3k rpm.. Traffic was damn smooth, not once I were needed to hit the brake.. Surprisingly, my fuel warning lights up when I reached 590km.. Walaoweh.. I guess, it can go further right? As after the warning lights up, next it will be blinking.. But didn't dare to wait until blinking since the next r & r will be 60+km apart.. Btw, I was driving alone anyway.. LOL.. Thats awesome mileage.. But I guess u are the only member here that can afford to drive slow on the highway.. For me very difficult. I will fall asleep on the wheel. I prefer driving at night when the weather is cool and the engine have extra power.. For my car after it lights up, i can travel around 20-40km b4 it blinks.. After blink i can travel around 50km b4 i bola kecut go find petrol station to pump.. QUOTE(unknownhammie @ Dec 29 2011, 09:11 AM) |

Errr....you mean you only find out abt that now PE torque comes in at quite high RPM compare general City-based car. It's this lack of low end torque that kill the FC during city drive. Mid-end torque is quite improve with introduction of IAFM the eliminate the mid-torque dip and IMO increase the mid-end torque and slightly only low end. I've done a rough calculation comparing it with the top of the FC range 1.5 liter City VTEC. For every full tank for both car at same tank fills (same amt of petrol), City can go abt 100km more in City drive due to its excellent low-mid end torque along with CVT acceleration. That means now, when I drive PE vs my old City, I'm losing abt 400 to 500km worth of petrol each month. Thats 1 extra full tank of petrol difference for each month. However adding up the cost of additional RM 30K (not including any interest for car loan) price difference between PE and City, it would take at the least 15 years to 30 years to make up the price difference. So overall its still worth it. However what surprises me when I buy PE is all the time I tot the benefit of PE is cheaper maintenance. How very wrong I am tho...coz in the end, the maintenance cost is actually even higher than City surprisingly. City very few problem, less failure AND importantly the darn Proton SC charge even worst than Honda SC. |

Well, City CVT VTEC I have one at home, it's really enjoyable drive in City... I can get 700KM on 32 litre basis where lights came on
The new City however, it's quite Honda Highway should be... If full city drive, only around 350KM on 32 litre basis, but on highway, I once traveled to Penang, only slightly 1 quarter, which I refueled in Caltex Georgetown, I calculated it returns 23KM/L... Civic FD2 wise... I am getting constant average 10KM/L during city drive, and around 12KM/L for mix driving, and 16KM/L for full highway. All using Caltex. |
