good day guys,
i think the comp. is pretty accurate, managed to get around 700km on a full tank. and best i had so far was about 14km/litre on highway.
my car is a 2.0vti-L and just did my 1k service.
Just wanna confirm with everyone here, did they change the engine oil during first service? the service center i went to told me first 1k service is only checking, but i forced them to change my engine oil. rclxub.gif

Based on personal preference i guess when it comes to NVH, personally i found out something very weird. I'm driving the 2.0 VtiL and the stock 17" seems to feel bumpier at normal speed, around 70-110kph. i recently changed my wheels to 225/45/18 with Conti MC5 and somehow the ride became even more comfortable.. which is weird.. the difference so obvious that even my wife notices it and commented that it was a big improvement. But the stock goodyear excellence tyres are seriously not comfortable and noisy. and regarding the millage using ECO mode, i feel leaving eco mode on in city driving makes the response too sluggish, and i too have a better economy with it turn off, i guess ECO mode works better on highway than on city driving. rclxub.gif rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

I am also vtil with the stock 17" rims. I feel the ride is very very bumpy.. My previous 2010 Altis was way better than it...

I am not sure if this is how Honda's absorber performs... Even I have pump the tyre to 32psi when it is cold... Do not feel any improvement at all...

Yea.. my goodyear had some uneven wear as well, but got it sorted out at the sc.. was some alignment problem.
Not sure about what year tyre i got but the stock ones was hard n very noisy, maybe the tyre hardened already haha.. but so far no complaints from 2 of my friends riding on 2.4 stock rims n tyres, in fact can compare with their previous rides. tongue.gif both driving VWs before this.
