Just overhauled my car due to water tank leakage.
Now engine damn cun... can go 160km smoothly & faster than b4, can go more but didn't dare coz at that speed, the car aleady feels light... but the best part was can simply overtook stock Gen2 1.6 at PLUS highway  tongue.gif

p/s: mine stock wira aeroback 1.5 (A) 2001

how much u overhaul it?

QUOTE(lord_shadow @ Oct 30 2006, 11:49 AM)
Hi everyone,

I just got my Wira 1.6XLI a month ago and I am a total noob in cars. I have some questios on fuel consumption, so far with Shell Super RM30.00, I am only able to get around 100km or a little more out of it.

Which works out to be around RM0.30/km????? Is the calculation correct? Anything too absurd on my car having such a high fuel consumption?

Btw, not much travelling on highways with my car, always mainly in USJ and Sunway....

Appreciate yer feedback. Thanks.
*
RM30 for 100km.
RM10 for arond 33km...
same like my 1.6XLI
there is a guy with 1.6XLI and with RM10, he can go around 90km

do we really need to warm up the engine? normally i warm up less than 1 min then go already... that time rpm around 1.0-1.3k like that... then before entering highway at those city road, i will go around 50-90kmh... entering highway then 120kmh... but nowaday, i enter highway also around 80-100kmh...

Better, let ur engine oil flow through the engine internal part. For ur case, it's ok. Warm up at least 30 seconds, then begin driving at a steady speed. Avoid fast rapid acceleration and high speed until ur engine has properly warm up, which is after 8-10km of driving distance.
*
i warm up my engine more than 1 min. 8-10km for slow driving? my house to my college 15Km++ wor...

i wanna ask u guys something... i realize that my aeroback, the rear look lower than my front... from side view.. for example... my front tyre wit fender around 4 fingers and my rear around 2.5-3 fingers
