pump full tank then reset your average meter. start monitoring your FC from there. see if got improvement or not. no need to wait for 1K service.
just my 2cents.

I've stop monitoring my FC since already get used to it. tongue.gif
full tank/~rm85 every week. 90% city drive.

By revving up to 6K rpm, once in a full moon, would also help to de-carbonize your engine/exhaust-valve system tongue.gif

I'd also like to take this opportunity to wish all Fortezens here (Chinese and non-Chinese included),

Why? FALKEN not good?  Falken 522.
The tyre shop said it's not as good as Michelin but still provide lesser noise than stock tyre. It's rm200 cheaper than Michelin. My old car user Falken quite good. Nose tolerable

912 still ok la but 522? Forget about it. They are as famous as Silverstone M5 when it comes to POOR GRIP. That's why if you are planning to go for FALKEN, I will recomend you not to change the tires cause they are about the same.

ur speed maintain at where?
i fully city drive, didnt notice my rpm but sometime oso quite hard for me to maintain speed at 40km/j...now the best i get is 12.6l/km, only first service.
*
i maintain speed at 90-100km/h.. 40/60 city/hiway.. the trick is to not step hard on ur throttle, maintain rpm below 3k.. dont step on ur throttle unnecessary like those in the link videos on previous posts..

Here you go.

DRL cable pulled inside from behind of the bumper .

Cable run beside the car battery.

Cable go connected to grounding before going into relay box.

Extra fuse and relay for the DRL.

Zoom out on relay box.

This installation is without switch. Turn on engine, DRL auto turn. Can't off while engine running.
You can put switch though. But they'll have to run longer cable for switch then.

Hi sifusssss, I received my 2.0 forte last week. I'm wondering it is common or my car FC is higher? according to the meter, it shown 12.6/100km. is it normal for new car 2.0 or my driving skill problem? stuck in the jam, it will count as well? I stuck in the jam last monday for almost 2hrs, is that causing this?

and changing to iridium plug and K&N filter will help? thanks thanks smile.gif
*
New car/engine need break-in (google what is engine break in)....'usually' YES FC will be 'slightly' higher but u can't expect 2.0 FC goes like 1.6...but 1.6 can go like 2.0 if you high rev biggrin.gif....

QUOTE(bennedict82 @ Feb 7 2013, 12:56 PM)
Driving skill will help first. Attend these training/briefing. I have attended. I have same thoughts with this teacher.

If you got money, change to better LRR tyre ... Michelin Primacy LC, PS3, Yokohama Advan DB551, Goodyea F1 Ays 2. Your tyre still new, go for trade in, sure get good value.

i also faced the same pain with you...car milleague less than 1k. now only go to 650km.

when i see the FC, really heart pain. so pratice not to monitor the FC meter. just drive as your normal style.
*
Thats why (no offence)...alot ppl think *(Even myself) tot big CC pickup (or up hill etc) sure nice - which is PARTIALLY correct BUT IF YOU are in CITY.....Jam all time....HARDLY outstation or highway....1.6sx (which save u around 12K) is much for worth it....somemore 2.0 roadtax not cheap..since edi get it just have to use to it if you are upgrading from small CC...

Falken is hardcore moderate person tyre...comfort isn't that much

i noticed a big difference if you try to control the rpm around 2k or 3k .. then you will be saving some fuel..

that is what i am currently practicing .. and it actually went down from 12-13 km/l  to 11-12km/l..

i am trying hard hopefully can get a better FC..
hehe~~~
*
To be frank, alot of ppl really dunno how to drive a AUTOMATIC transmission car....all this while i were driving a manual car, this will be my FIRST auto car and you MUST know the TECHNIQUE of controlling throttle...not just about 'MAINTAINING' at certain RPM etc....you need to play around with your throttle...and AUTO car is NOT meant for HIGH REV..but with pedal shift, alot ppl like to DRAG their gearbox.... rclxub.gif
