Between Goodyear NCT5 vs Michelin XM-2, which is better for Fuel Economy ? How much do they cost ?
Planning to change 2 pieces first... is it better to put the new ones in front or at the back ?

QUOTE(JeffxMatt @ Jun 27 2012, 02:50 AM) hey guys, i got my car somewhere last November, 1.3 EZI, and my fc is quite a cutthroat.. my full tank cost roughly around rm60 and it goes 320km max. my car usually goes between 8.9-10.0km/l. Is there any way to improve my fc? or is it just my bad luck getting a high fc car? Added on June 27, 2012, 2:53 amoh and im a not that much of a heavy footer. and i use my car to go to class, get some food and the occasional trip to the mall every once in a while. How often do you service your car ? Is your tyres properly inflated ? Do you keep your car idle >5mins ?

QUOTE(JeffxMatt @ Jun 27 2012, 08:10 AM) i usually service my car when its at the specified mileage or when the specified period of month has lapsed. My mileage is 8k, but ill be servicing it soon (3rd service) as the period is nearly due. as for the second question, maybe. i usually inflate it every other week, depending on my schedule. is that sufficient? and nope, i rarely keep my car idle. usually ill turn off the engine when im waiting for people. Possibly the distance you drive to reach your destinations... too many short stops are back for the FC also

QUOTE(JeffxMatt @ Jun 27 2012, 09:14 AM) perhaps, but isnt it a bit too extreme that my full tank fo rm60 can only get me 320km max (if im lucky, if im not, its 300km). any suggestion on how to improve my fc? Which fuel do you use ? Try Petronas RON95.... selected Shell stations I go to can only achieve <350km Petronas can get 400-430km on average.....

QUOTE(jun_ng_1208 @ Jun 27 2012, 09:57 AM) For AT 1.3 Myvi, the worst I've heard was 380km with full tank...perhaps you can try by reseting the ECU by removing the ECU1 fuse @ the fuse box behind the drawer for 2 hrs then plug it back  What does resetting the ECU do ?

Is getting 8.1 liter per 100km fuel-efficient enough for 1.3 AT EZi ?

QUOTE(ikiey @ Jun 29 2012, 04:45 AM) Personally i think thats very high because 8.1/100km equals to 12.3km/l... I even after high rolling resistance tires still manages n averages 14.5km/l which equates to 6.9l/100km.. Mine 1.5 manual, city driving all the way But I still manage to get about 400km when it starts to blink-blink

QUOTE(chronous @ Jul 2 2012, 01:09 PM) Anyone know the exact range our LPLB Myvi can go after the fuel indicator start blinking? Driving from Ipoh to Penang just now. The range show 36KM. I enter the Penang bridge and stuck in jam for 10 min. Then in the middle of the bridge, the range show --- KM. I was like WTF. Luckily my car did not stop at the middle of the bridge there. Btw, my auto 1.5 got 435 KM for full tank before I refuel again after the blinking. I guess the FC should be better after my first 1000 KM service this evening.  What's LPLB ?

Is this product Automax Nanotech Fuel Enhancer safe to be use on Myvi ? Does it work to improve FC ?

When the fuel indicator blinks, there is suppose to be 10 liters of petrol left. Perodua Myvi's tank is 40 liter, does that mean it blinks when tank is 3/4 empty ?

This evening I heard "eeek, eeek, eeek" sound (similar grinding) coming from my driver-side wheel while driving. Brakes weren't applied. What could be wrong ?
