I hv one good suggestion which i always used to check my wife myvi 1.3cc manual for fuel consumption that is

1st, pump full tank until almost overflow ( a little bit overflow at mouth of refuel hole), not need to know how much u pump in. after that immediately reset trip meter to "0" before start to drive ur car.

2nd, then, drive ur car like usual until indicator light up to refill it. ( try to memorise where u drive mostly, city or highway if can )

3rd, then, go to pump station, and record down ur total distance from trip meter, say trip meter shown 450km for example. meaning that u hv travel 450km from last full tank (which almost overflow one)

4th, now pump full tank until almost overflow again ( a little bit overflow at mouth of refuel hole like previous pump) to see how much fuel u need to replace it until same level. Now check ur amount of fuel pump in , say RM 60.00 or 31.58 litres for example for RON 95.

5th, now u can use 450km as recorded in trip meter divided by 31.58 litres to get 14.25km / litre which equal to 7.02 litres / 100km.

In my opinion, this is most accurate method to measure ur fuel consumption compare to those digital display which i always doubt on it. (This call replacement method since u can pump it until almost overflow which u can see by ur eye to make sure it is same level of full tank between last pump and current pump)


BTW, my wife myvi fuel consumption really around 14km / litre , i hv checked it a lot of time already about 60% city and 40% highway


Still dilema in deciding for buying Honda City 1.5E or Kia Forte 2.0SX, although I know I should not compare between different Segment car , but I compare them because both fall into my budget.

Aiya , oredi did research from Internet more than one month Lar , but still cannot conclude now , supposed today after work need to meet up the SA for Kia forte to ask more, but for sure he will try to talk about good thing for forte Lar . I more Concern on quality & reliability compare to Honda . For FC , as long as not below 9km / litre for worst case then I still can accept it . For resale value , as long as the depreciation not extra more than 10% compare to civic 2.0 then I still also can accept it .

Ya correct correct , better all buyer go for AZ master , so he can sell more and get more discount from naza and pass the saving to end user . Perhaps later Kia motor from korean will look for AZ master for joint venture , and kick out naza . Haha .. Dreaming

Funny why ur fc become worse ??

So many old and repeat & repeat again for same problem like rattling sound on dashboard and left pull issues still happen until now. Why the Naza Kia dun bother also ? why not they solve it before hand over cars to buyer ? Are they aware the problems and try to solve it or improve it ? ? Or they really fun have Quality control ?? All these will make a lot people who are considering in buying forte to think twice !! Although is not major problems but buyer mostly expect problem free for new car !

is there any lucky guy whose hv no problem for the left pull issue and rattling sound after having new car ??

Come on , if really want to know ur actual balance of fuel inside the tank when the DTE blinking , immediate and quickly go to pump station refuel until full tank and see how much fuel u need to make it full then minus with forte spec full tank of 52 liters , then u should know roughly how much balance of fuel remaining in ur tank once DTE blinking .

I hv seen this Eco mode in YouTube Kia forte hatchback which I think in us version, I dun think forte here hv it .

200% agree !! No no, is 1000000% agree on it .

Actually , anyone know what is the best way to breaking ur new forte car ? IMO, it should affect performance or fc of car in long term . What is handbook of forte stated for break in period ?
