Any brand will do ?
currently one tank of rm73 RON 95 can last me 510-520km using this 20 40 ELF oil. Im a light footer.

Yes, any brands will do for old cars and not performance oriented.
Just use non-synthetic oil (normal mineral oil) and change every 5k-7k km

I think your mileage is quite good for light footer already, not even knowing your city/highway %
RM73 / RM1.90 per L
= 38.42L / 510km * 100
= 7.5L/100km

or convert:
= 510km/38.42
= 13.27km/L

Actually i travel highway more then city but highway also vry jam during morning and evening. i think can consider 80% highway. but i drive till almost empty la, cuz i know my mileage well according to your previous post for wira mileage when light indicator come up smile.gif

Really nice tips from you, but not dare to try my actual maximum mileage. haha tongue.gif

LOL. Thanks for compliments. No need try, it's about there +/-, unless you get a jerry-can full of petrol to really try it out.

I also use fuelly. But I keep a small notebook + pen in car to jot down everytime refuel, and reset the tripmeter.

Some people say I waste time and better be more productive (to earn more money) than calculating this.  tongue.gif

haha, you calculating this = saving fuel money already. it also count as productive ma~ biggrin.gif

hey guys, im driving a wira sedan 1.5 Manual.
currently thinking about modding my stock exhaust system.
this is the setup the shop recommend for me :

421 ext + flexible pipe
+9" bullet or 12" bullet
+1.6" piping
+oval straight flow muffler or s flow muffler.

total include labour fee around 600 bucks.

i have no experience in modding exhaust, so i wana ask if i take this package, after mod will this setup increase my FC ? the person told me it will not affect my FC and will also help my car feels lighter. issit true ?

im not a heavy footer and all i wan is juz a more pleasure driving. dont wan car felt heavy.
need advice frm u guys seriously, thx ! smile.gif
