Hi all,

Few years back, there is a guy called Taipan. He used few ways to improve the fuel consumption and very impressive.

1) Use Fully Synthetic Oil 5W-30 (every 10K KM) 2) Change to Simota Performance Air Filter at 20K KM 3) Change to Iridium Power at 30K KM 4) Install TAB + PBTE at 35K KM 5) Install VS + GC at 40K KM (latest mod at this date)

I have few questions here, if I get these installed on my car, will it void the warranty? Will it cause any side effect? Appreciate your advice.

Average 7.5liter / 100km. Full tank can go up to 600km. around 15cents / 1km. Looks very good.

oh new thread.. about to reply about the navigator

anyway, I've been playing aroung with Papago X8.5 + MFM maps for a couple of days now. works great. the hardest part was to look which .exe to use because I have no idea what COM port our HU used.. so I try one by one and got it to work in the end. boot up a bit slow around 10 secs and the first scanning for signal took a while (almost 1 min or so) to lock but after quite fast.

what you need just a blank usb drive or micro sd.. put the papago and maps in it. then just set the path of the .exe in Apps > Options > System. look for navi.exe and click OK. thats all

My 2.0SX, after driving 398km, pump in RM 90 petrol (RON 95). That's about 11.9L/100KM. Not yet 1st service. Hopefully after 1st service will be better.

You all using the old HU or the new touchscreen HU?if you are using the old HU,the HU itself got a function call SDVC(Speed Dependant Volume Control) which technically would increase or decrease your HU volume by itself when u reach a certain speed.. smile.gif
