Today I drove from penang to kl with speed between 110-120km/h. When I check the fuel consumption meter, it showed 8.1liter/100km. Not really save fuel. It used my half tank I believe about 25 liters.

something wrong with your car...mine also can get below 7l/100km if drive consistant 110-120km/h...i can say average around 6.6l/100...btw mine is 2.0 4 speed...

You didnt give more details how to give you advice? If you keep overtaking cars. Accelerating and braking often? Its all about your style of driving. You want to save fuel - accelerate gently, down hill leg off the accelerator. Google hypermiling please.  smile.gif

I drive consistently. But I didn't reset the fc meter before start driving on highway. Does it matter? And my car full of luggages in  my trunk and took 3 persons.

So is my fc reasonable?

so your fc reading ia not 100% highway drive....the best way to check your highway fc reading...you have to reset the trip meter after u pump fuel for highway journey....
