QUOTE(craxors @ Jul 18 2013, 11:20 AM) mine...only when hot day. or lunch time.... Same here, funny thing is, there was no rattling sound at all before my first service, only noticed it after 1st service.    But the sound do come out only once awhile (maybe you're right, during hot days, nowadays raining quite cool, no sound), and it makes the same sound when I manually press on the dash (passenger side, airbag section). |

hmm.. mine can go only about 310km before fuel blink, fill petrol not full, about RM80, 100% city drive, below 100km/h, rpm below 3k, about 13-14litre/100km, definitely not normal right?

QUOTE(boxter @ Jul 19 2013, 09:40 PM) i can feel your pain.....  QUOTE(bennedict82 @ Jul 19 2013, 10:16 PM) drive this car need to be polite. RPM keep 2k enough. Don't press hard on fuel pad when start from stop point. I drive like very polite lady. You can see my FC as from my signature. I am as polite as can be, sometimes very hard la, city driving jam like kok, the second u see some distance in front, apa lagi, tekan lor, lol. but I do try to keep it below 3k, 2k very hard. |

QUOTE(lingleeyen @ Jul 24 2013, 03:26 AM) If there is and if they worked, we would have done it. Filter claimed to be helping, PB helped me to save, tyre seems to be doing it also. There is no quantification. If it is bad traffic, practice lighter foot. Scratch pedal surface with toes and not step on it. Best low FC mod is still to mod your right foot. sigh, guess you're right, if anyone have done it, I would have read it here by now. Does PB really help in FC? I always thought it's gonna make it worse, increasing throttle and all. Unless you're talking about the ECO mode, which I believe in one of your posts, u mentioned it being one of the worst mode, correct me if i'm wrong.There is a device they call fuel braker or fuel ioniser. One that has magnet and put on your fuel line. Not sure if it works. Also some device you poke into the cigeratte plug claim to work too. I guess really have mod right foot, or maybe start using paddle shifters, but really not a good idea in city drive. |

QUOTE(zerohunter @ Jul 24 2013, 10:56 AM) Is your fc really that bad ? Mine is 1.6 rm90 ron95 gives me average 450km, 90% city driving, most trip are less than 25km, lazy to calculate xxkm/l Yea, it's that bad. I'm also driving a 1.6sx, RM80 on RON95, Petronas (hmm..)Oh ya i'm a person who have no patients, so my foot is hehe Daily trip: 21.3km (I use trip B to reset/monitor daily), except for weekends, differs, usually within 20-30km/weekend 100% city drive, RPM below 3k most of the time Avg FC: 13~14L/100km or 7.69~7.14KM/L or RM0.25~RM0.26/KM (I have a spreadsheet if you want) Upon fill, meter usually says 400km++ till empty, but usually it's just a bit over 300 till fuel indicator blinks So yeah..

QUOTE(zerohunter @ Jul 24 2013, 12:01 PM) Still new ma, don't worry it will improve in the future QUOTE(lingleeyen @ Jul 24 2013, 12:18 PM) Let the car run in first. Get used to it. But for me FC increase after my car runs in because I drive faster now. So got to maintain. Yea, I guys u guys are right, car still new, maybe after a couple more months see how, may consider PB. Tks for the advises |

QUOTE(zerohunter @ Jul 24 2013, 12:40 PM) U can save the money of pb by practice your right foot lol, will try, but a bit hard ler. I'm sure you all have been in those jam situations where the second u leave a gap in front of u (by not accelerating early/fast enough), cars will be cutting into your lane. I face this every single day.QUOTE(lingleeyen @ Jul 24 2013, 01:05 PM) PB is not a FC improvement device. Also, you can consider other brand of throttle controller. I have mentioned before in my review, that the 'mode' arrangement is a little not so user friendly. Consider some other TC with only racing and eco mode. Normal driving set to racing level 6 or 7. Spirited drive set to max. Instead of choosing mode like PB. yea I understand it's not a FC improvement device, but by what you mentioned earlier, if it can help me reduce the 'excessive' throttle during jam, maybe it might improve my FC a bit |
