Fr posted replies, appears type is not fixed...

Wonder wat's rationale for 2 different types of that "pollen" filter?
Cos it appears 2b not related to model eg BLM/FL/FLX....

Cld it be paired with the aircon sys? My aircon compressor is a Sanden. Are there any Denso units in Saga?
Or mayb production batch? hmm.gif

Mine I think also second type.

Bros....Since we're on topic of "differences" in aircon filter, let's chk out the Filter Box itself...
The Filter Box Cover... brows.gif

In Bro david's attached video, the cover is opened by releasing the clip on its right side.

This is mine :

Yup, that clip is on the LEFT side!! rolleyes.gif

So....?? rclxub.gif

Possibly supplied by different vendors?
Yr guess is as good as mine.... rolleyes.gif

Out of curiosity, how many litres does it take to fuel up you guys'(and gals') Saga when there's only the last indicator remaining(but not blinking)? It kinda baffles me that even when using until the last indicator, and on the third tank of petrol now, that it barely reaches RM50 per fuel up. Is the tank REALLY that small?

I watched the video before opening mine and was confused why no such clip on the right side. Turns out mine is on the left side instead sweat.gif

I drive used up the fuel until it starts blinking, and continue to drive another 60km on heavy traffic in KL, in the end, I can push until 33.xx litres of fuel inside the tank, the tank capacity should be 40-litre according to spec.

Yeah.. I realised the tank capacity is smaller at 40-litres, but based on RM50(not blinking but last column on the 6-bar fuel gauge), it's only around RM27-litres, which meant there's still roughly 13-litres in the tank, enough for another 130km given the worst FC scenario for me so far.

Just no used to it. It just means I have to stop for fuel ups more often now doh.gif

Not sure whether to get the 1k service done this Friday or next Monday. It's close to 800km now and that exhaust flexi vibration is really getting on my nerves. rclxub.gif doh.gif icon_question.gif

Best FC to date is on the highway at 15.3km/L, not sure if the fuel tank wasn't fueled up to full properly, but City driving so far is around 10-10.5km/L. hmm.gif

Yep. Last time my Waja can refuel once a week. The Saga needs at least 2-3 times per week unsure.gif But I refill when half tank (three bars) la for both cars.

By the way, changed the shoes on your Saga dy?

my car is also quite new. i get about 15km/l on the highway too but city driving is only 8.5-9km/l. could be due to grippier tyres though. it's quite worrying as my other car, Honda City, gets 11km/l at least on city drives with the same tyres.

anyone knows how to improve the FC? i am already very gentle on throttle.

Yup, thats normal also for my Saga FL. I normally used up to the fuel warning lighted, I can go for another 50-60km (100% city driving). Just to share with you guys something very embarassing, I have experience b4 where I used up all the petrol until my car suddenly just stop in the middle of the road and cannot start at all!! sweat.gif (was in a hurry and forgot to pump petrol!) So had to push to the side, walk about 10 mins to the nearest petrol station, buy a 1.5 lit mineral water bottle, empty it, and fill it up to full (about almost RM3 worth of RON95), go back to car and fill it into petrol tank (this one quite challenging as u need to pour slowly if not sure spill out!!), can immediately start, went to the nearest petrol station and fill it up again. If I remember clearly, I was able to pump in another 35+ litres. So try not to push it as it may not be exactly 40 litres. You need to estimate how far you should go until yr next fill-up. Don't end-up like me, trust me, you wouldn't want to go through what I experienced shakehead.gif

Yeah.. Kinda not used as most of my other cars have at least a 50L tank except the Kancil, but the Kancil also can go on for about 10 days per tankful. Still running on the stock Silverstone(s) inflated to 33psi/30psi cold pressure. It seems the front wheel wells are overly small and could only fit close to stock size, rough measurements is that 195/55 actually nudges both the front and rear plastic covers on full steering lock! I have yet to muster the motivation to swap over the 195/55 wheels from my other car for a test, might either go for 185/55R15 PS3 or 205/50R15 KU36 instead as they are closer to stock diameter.

So far, both my tanks of city driving are close to 10km/L, have yet to go for first service, 3rd tankful of petrol now. I'm not sure why you mentioned "grippier tyres", that is, unless you've upgraded the stock tyres. The City, if it's the iDSi, is sorta a lean burn model, can't compare with a normal, slightly revvy IAFM engine of the Saga. Being gentle on the throttle doesn't necessarily gives better FC, giving the right throttle input for the right load is the crucial thing, drive it like a manual, not an auto.

Well.. I'll definitely refuel when it hits the 2/3 of the fuel gauge, was kinda pushing it for me by going down to the last indication bar today, and, no, I'm not going to test how far it'll go on blinking mode. laugh.gif Kills the fuel pump faster too if you frequently do that. It's just a minor complaint from my part but I could live with it.

Didn't mean to invoke a FC discussion, but I was initially mentioning about the small fuel tank. Have you done your first service? 400KM per tankful seems about right actually.

I had experienced this before. Thankfully, my car automatically stop when i reached the petrol station. After 60km fuel blinking. shocking.gif
