Alza no difference between fuel grades...

I though so

My odo already 2100, and my journey is from rawang to ttdi everyday (30km) with 50% hiway plus till sg buloh and 50% jem frm damansara damai till ttdi. My fuel average is 7.7l/100km

perodua engine is design for low octane rating, RON 90 if i not mistaken. So 95 or 97, it shouldn't be any difference. I tried shell RON97 once, and the was the only 1 time i tried RON97, FC remains the same.

I do know some engine e.g Mazda skyactiv, volkswagen, insight hybrid does feel the difference as the engine is tuned to suit to RON95, hence giving it a RON97 should brings out the "hidden potential"of the engine by a bit.

Btw, anybody tinted your alza? Do you tinted 2nd layer or do you replace the llumar security tinted? The factory tinted is not heat rejection enuf. I'm still dilemma to do tinted or not

You know what, after I reset FC meter and I drove from Bukit Jalil to bukit bintang parked my car went for a drink and drove home, this is what I get O.O

Yaya, I saw from ALza Uder Manual, the engine IS design for RON90 and above.

how you can get average per litre? I press press cannot see such selections ler~

is logical to have that number after reset, it takes some distance to get a more precise reading, i bet the number will increase if you trapped in jam especially, i was driving back from PG - Ipoh last week and i reset the FC meter while i'm cruising, guess what? 4.5L/100km! i knew it's bluffing for sure. In the end, when i reach Ipoh, the FC looks really good, 6.5L/100km, after 2 days of city drive, the 6.5 number wasn't there anymore, it goes up to 7.8 instead.

i went to service and have a chit chat with perodua techician, the alza FL is getting new gearbox (as we all knew it), and (he told me) the new gearbox is taking in more ATF, 2.9L(?), in the owner's manual, it states 2.2L, so i dunno which is correct. Anyhow, the dipstick reading shows the fluid level is OK (albeit is shifted to P and engine shut, but it should be representable as the car just put to a stop for like 7 minutes). Perhaps any sifu who is familiar with this new gearbox able to shed some light on this? Thanks.

there's no km/L for Alza, myvi has it. Press the MID display mode to ODO, then press it until the RANGE blinks (i presume your display mode is in RANGE), then press it one more time... huala!, there you go for AVG display, to reset it, press and hold while the AVG is still blinking. It should turn out to be -.- L/100km

ok thx`gonna try it out later~~~~

erm... I am driving an alza, the photo i attached is my alza Meters...

yea i knew it.... it's an alza SE/adv meter for yours. What my reply is meant for the other fellas.

oh? o.o I though all alza facelift version have the same meters? That's something new.

Anyone using OBD2 for Alza?

STD version using the sporty amber meter, while SE & ADV uses the Red white colour scheme.


i don't recall perodua cars are readable by market OBD2 readers (probably their OBD protocol wasn't pure OBD2 at all), not sure on this FL alza, i'll be glad if it's market OBD2 is usable on Alza FL.

My new alza advance, it is 8.6/L 100km, is it very high? Means I spend a lot on petrol?

11.6km/l, good for mixed driving condition

Looking forward to get the new car on this Friday.
