You need to put additional 4 psi for front and rear as the recommended tyre pressure is for car on stationary position. Once the car have travelled more than 1.5km, the tyre have expanded and thus need to put in extra 4 psi. This tip was shared by mat79 on this forum sometime back.

hmmm.. that i think i need to put extra 2 or 3 psi infront. I heard people says about filling gas into that tyre instead of using air. It wont expand right? anyone use gas before? I heard my friend says it does not require to put in air every now and then. can use longer time. and the tyre is much more lighter.

I will be happy if my preve can reached 450km per full tank . Now my max is only 430km.. sad.gif

sure can. try drive consistent speed. through out the journey to longer distance like malacca. genting, cameron, ipoh or penang or even further away until border of thailand and see if it got change. but must be consistent. abit boring but thats the way to get a good reading. when take over car...gently press pedal to overtake not press down to the floor within 1 or 2 seconds to get that speed...of course make sure the car at the right is not running at 200kmph and more than 10 cars away then can safely do that.

Why do you need to masuk octane booster? Preve already designed to run at 95 octane. I don't see any need to boost octane that do nothing for the current engine except burning more $$$.

Ya lor, its almost ALWAYS better to overinflate your tyre slightly rather than underinflate. Air will lari slowly, so after a short while, you'll be optimum pressure. Underinflate WILL always be below optimum pressure, wear side treads and increase FC. So I see no benefit in pumping below recommended pressure unless you're using a really hard tyre where it might be too bumpy if you maintain higher pressure.
*
hmmm about the bumpy part my tyre is come with the standard GT Radial Champiro Bax2 tyre. Not sure if this tyre is hard type or what every time at highway when reach the simen floor it will generate very loud sound and also quite bumpy. is it because of our spring is new so that it is bumpy or is it because of the tyre got too much air that cause that.

when i receive my car new that time the pressure is way too high. 38 or 40 if i not mistaken. can be seen at the side cause it huge like balloon. and feel bumpier ride each time pass the bump. old people cannot sit in a bumpy car even we have comfy seats. so reduce tyre pressure seems to reduce abit of the bumpy feeling. is it cause of the preve spring too long should i make it shorter so that it wont bounce that much?

or should i change to better tyre like michelin or CC5 for soft and comfort? thinking of changing tyre...but of course until the current one wears off only change. i think cheapest is around rm 280 ~ rm 320 per tyre.

I think you meant nitrogen. Hydrogen is explosive (e.g. Hindenburg disaster) and lighter than air. You would be flying biggrin.gif

..i not good in chemistry...nitrogen is it a cooler that can cool down a very high boost cpu? like i7core from 3.Ghz to 7Ghz? ...tyre wont become ice after put in?

That is liquid nitrogen. The nitrogen gas in tyres is used in airplanes and F1 cars. There are 2 main reasons:

1. The expansion rate is linear with temperature
2. The expansion is minimal compared to plain air

However, air is already ~70% nitrogen.

I just use normal air (it's free!)

Travel from KL-Alor Setar-KL over the weekend, i can say the car very comfort for long distance.

Fuel consumption 7.1L/100km, speed 90KM-120KM/H. Stop at Ipoh & Penang City for Makan Makan..

Average is about 0.14cents per KM for highway driving + Penang Bridge traffic jam to Alor Setar....

After back from Alor Setar to KL, i noticed that the brake pedal got "Cit Cit" sound when pressing, this sound can heard inside the cabin, just like the brake pedal join does not have enough oil/grease.

Have anyone of you drive to Spore? Can our car gps use in Singapore?
