God knows how bad i want to install rns and reverse camera... But that will only void my warranty.. So have to use the stock for another 4 years and 50 weeks.. QUOTE(phas3r @ Jul 18 2012, 02:24 AM) what do you drive? I have 1.4 rocco. Its 2 weeks old now   mileage at 200km only. Waiting for bro KC to opti coat the car beore long distance travel..

QUOTE(phas3r @ Jul 18 2012, 02:24 AM) the claimed figures for FC, as with other manufacturers, are too optimistic. Agree on this. 7.9L/100KM is official figure for mk5, i only got 10.2L/100km for a long average. not sure when i reset that, maybe since 3 years ago. at least for 1 year lah. if cruising 90-110kph; get around 7.7-8.4L/100km; still way off the 5.9L/100 claimed. someone with the Golf R got 13L/100km when his previous MK5 GTI Stage2+ getting 10L/100km on the same road. It also depends on what kind of road and traffic jam you stuck in. In my case, similiar KL city centre jam daily, I'm getting 10.5L/100km for the initial first few thousand KM run. After further continous manual data logging with some highway cruise run, I'm down to 9.68L/100km now. Compare to my previous manual 1.5L car (don't think auto can beat manual in jam, unless is hybrid like Prius), the overall average is 7.67L/100km Similiar driving style. |

I always stuck in traffic jam, I can say 90% stuck in LDP jam + 10% highway & my average consumption is about 12L/100km.

Added on July 18, 2012, 2:27 am what do you drive? hmm cannot say also, i dont think it will be as long as 10 years. usual for german cars is 7 years. Mk5 is 2003-2008.(03-04 including normal golfs in europe)  was hoping to be true that 7.0L / 100km .... is about 70% more |
