thats a very daring try bro, but scary...

Its always good to know your maximum range. Ive done this on previous cars as well. This comes in handy in emergencies.

The reason why you can almost always fill more than your tank's capacity is because the max fuel sensor is not really located at the brim of the tank. Thats why if u really fill, the first bar takes ages to drop, but subsequent bars are much faster. Same with other cars too.

But my question is, how come we can fill up to 10L more than the specified tank capacity? I can understand about 4 or even 5L max, but 10L???

Most of the time, i fill between 72-76L of fuel.
Very rarely i fill below 70L. My previous record was 78.95L when i first got the car. But now ive managed 80.26L. My distance travelled was 780km. This consisted of 80% highway driving at 160-170kmph and the rest in city traffic. Quite good i must say. The fuel economy is improving as the car gets more mileage.

Still discovering all the car features and loving it. Also purchased my car mat from Sh@rty today and was totally satisfied.

However I discovered the battery negative cap is missing? Can other bro confirm that there are battery negative cap?

tested the car today.
It was awesome.

Spec for spec this is value for money vs any similar Japs.

Power is adequate and tyre noise is no so loud, even quieter than the Sonata. Same level as VW Passat CKD.

Good choice guys!

That's only about 9.7 km/l. Would that be considered good for 80% highway? Though you were going at 160-170 kmh.
Say, at that speed what is your rpm?

i managed to get 765k. Filled up petrol only 70ltr, distance to end 800km. Damn save a lot..like this car very much.

My car 

Colour: Santorini Blue
Model: EX 2.4 Theta II 2012

i only speak of what i know...for worse or not, u all judge

and not all cars are driven from port...big volume prolly they truck it, or maybe sometimes, urgent
but ODO still not over 1000km even if it is driven, why wanna make it worse and thrash ur OWN car?

When i got my car, the ODO shows 350KM. Haha! i said screw it     
what's the worst that can happen?

Some cheapskate stole my front K-emblem badge!   

Thats a lot, where did u get your car from?
If you are staying in Ipoh probably make sense, because maybe they drive al the way from Klang to Ipoh.
