Your driving style? City drive all the time? Because last time when I using 0W20 fully-sync engine oil did bring me a very good FC, now using 5W40 performance got better but FC slightly higher for my eco driving style but if driving a bit more aggressive the FC will increase higher I think it's because VTEC kick in easily  hmm.gif

again, which driving conditions? as i've shared several times, i've managed 550-600km / full tank consistently.

My driving style is quite conservative, only rev higher when overtake, but this is like only 5%.
70% City drive, 30% highway.
I don't rev high as our City low end torque is weak, but consistently I'm stuck in traffic jam in Penang.

Anyone has done any mod or remapping the ECU for better low end torque? Or it is limited by our engine and can't be changed?

One of the way to solve low end torque use 5W40 fully sync engine oil thumbup.gif Stuck at traffic jam is one of the factor causing FC to increase, I din't mod anything. I saw some City driver here mention before grounding cable could help FC if not mistaken?

Was thinking to change from 0W20 to the semi-synthetic on my next service instead laugh.gif
5W40 is quite expensive at RM2xx if not mistaken?

I've read about voltage stabilizer + grounding cable before, the result varies from different car and driver, so not sure if it really helps.
I think it improves more on ICE and maybe just a tad bit in FC and torque, or they are just placebo effect.

5W40 I pay only around RM140/150 due to got 20% discount, where you service your car at? Did you check and see when they change the engine oil or request for the remaining? Last few weeks when I service my car 20K I straight go to behind and check if they use the correct engine oil and also straight ask the technician put the remaining to my car but left a little bit only. Yours service got any discount?

I didn't check them as I just pass my key to them and leave, I didn't wait at the service center nor request for the remaining oil, will do so next time.
I service at Vivahill Auto, Penang, and they don't allow customer to walk into their workshop.

There will be remaining a bit left, you have to request from them otherwise they will just keep it/throw it. They won't pour until finish they will only pour until reach the level then they will stop pouring in anymore. smile.gif

Driving style still same.

I used to drive Vios. The FC is good.
city drive is around 520 to 550km and highway drive can up to 650km
when light indicator on, pump full around 32.5 to 33.5 liter.

Now, I'm drive Honda City. The FC is not as good as Vios.
And some more, one thing i don't like Honda City is, I need to go to SC to services the car every 5k. The services charges is much more expensive than Toyota Vios.

I have one question to ask.
Read quite a lot of ppl review that, after install the K & N filter, their City have more power.

If we change the filter, will this void the warranty ?

Thanks.
