Mine 95% city 5% highway, not sure whether FC will improve after 1st service.

Anyway, believed to realise above 10km/l should be no problem as my ECON stayed off since to now.

1st service i believe they didnt replace the m-oil...
So dun expect much. I think they just do general checking on 1000km

Emmm....10.6km/l is really makan minyak le ......

In the end..it depends on how u drive..the figure given would be just a reference.
If u were to drive 60kmph everyday with low aircond..i think probably u might reach 13km/l.

no chance you can hit 18km/L la... maybe 90% highway driving can...

how come i cannot see the link, broken ah

Its too early to conclude the average FC, it highly depend on your driving behave. For my case was 95% city, ECON off and I don't bother to step bit more to gain speedup feel

Any 1.8 owner can share your FC?

I think the miyak figure u guys should use XX L / 100km ...

Just wait and ur engine run-in till next oil change 10000km...see any improvement by then

i used 1.8, last saturday drive to Pahang its show 13.9/l with econ on..

What car were you driving before this?

Of course they replace the engine oil la.

Why is it considered makan minyak?

10.6km/L for 70% city driving would give you a range of 530km on the Civic's 50L fuel tank which is quite ok if u ask me.

Good FC. I'm going to on the ECON for my next f.tank. Would you feel the power significantly drop after ECON on?

So safety, value for money, specs, technology, design & warranty terms are not important as resale value? What is the % of drop in value for a 2.0L Camry? Did you check yourself or are you merely vomitting out other ppl's garbage without doing any checks of your own? D segment car resale values are far lower than C segment makes. Its a known fact.

Fuel consumption figures are secondary to actually testing the full tank mileage.

Fill up till the first click of the pump, drive till almost empty, then fill up again till the first click of the pump. Record mileage driven and then compare figures. Do it about 3 times to get an average reading. This will be more accurate. But also take into account % of highway or city driving.

Check the service booklet..they dun change on 1000km

i think he was referring to the first service at 1000km of which they fine tune this that. dont think any oil change or anything changed for that matter because the cost is only less than 30RM which is waived as well as one of the 6 free labour services



on fuel economy note,

to be honest i dont really check my milage or fuel consumption etc etc. i mean not in figures. my driving distances are pretty much routine. so i know what the appropriate ringgit cost per distance i drive. it is easy to realise something is wrong by just checking my petrol payments or refuelling intervals. and for the econ button? i never fail NOT to push it. haha.
the cruise control works well. so far so good the civic.

I think the purpose here is to know what is the fuel consumption and if its really economical or otherwise. Not to check if something is 'wrong'.

Well, if the ECON button works the same way as the the ECO button on the Optima, then it will regulate your RPM, and lower the gear change ratio (which results in faster upshifts). Not sure if it has any effect on the aircon.

This will give you a sluggish feel but slightly better FC during town drives. But ECON has little or no effect on highway cruising speeds in excess of 90kmph. Its best effects are felt during stop go traffic conditions.

But i would recommend you to do a comparison of FC during 100% city driving with and without the ECON button switched on.
