hi there,

mine has been dropping drastically for the past 1 yr ... i've been doing purely city driving. from like 12km/l drop to now only abt 9km/l. been servicing my car every 5k also. the last service somemore use fully synthetic also no use. the only reason i could think of is that my k&n filter haven't been cleaned for quite some time, but will that cause such a drastic drop in fuel consumption? planning to get a normal air filter to test.

hi guys, i think my tyres have wore out quite badly.
recently i can hear a very loud whishing sound (not sure how to describe it) from my front tyres. its like every cycle it spins, the tyre generates like whishing sound. so the faster i drive the frequency of the noise increases. and when i slow down the frequency decreases in parallel.
its very obvious especially in the morning and also at night. and the noise gets even louder when i swerve to the car to the right. but in the afternoon the sound is less notable.

how old is your car? check the level of thread. get like a coin or something or even ruler la. measure from in to out the whole width of the tire. But i doubt it's your tyres.
prime suspect, wheel bearings.

any mods? rims? tyre? suspension? try isolate where is it coming from. front or back left or right.
