What brand of fuel you are using now? to answer your Q's 1. No mods, all stock  2. Avg on meter: 8.6L/100km 3. Using mixture of Shell N Petronas Recently tried filling up BHP and my word it is good even for Ron95 type..Faster response and engine feels lighter..

Check your meter and see. For example mine always average 32km/h. You said the meter show 8.6L/100KM but your own calculation is 7.9L/100KM. Are you sure? Most cases the meter fc showing lower than actual one (own calculation).

as we are discussing about FC, our Forte didn't equipped with ECO mode right? saw YouTube videos that showing how to activate this feature buy holding the TRIP button (?) but that's not local Forte...
what is the most efficient range of RPM to be maintained eh? 1500 to 2500?

And always drive on left lane not to block others.

I believe this is not an issue. I prefer it that way actually (stay on air circulation mode when turn off the AC). Last time my car AC behave like this..now it back to default setting (switch to fresh air intake) when turn off the AC. I'm not sure on how to toggle between this 2 type of settings anyway This post has been edited by izputra: Feb 5 2013, 02:34 PM

Always toggle between the 2 switch. Sometimes in car circulation and sometimes air intake ( when i on A/C).. Shouldn't be an issue i believe.. I found out Forte's A/C veli veli different from others car. Maybe it have the heater function.
