as title...

wira 1.5 auto 1994 with 3speed transmision only
test condition is
from my house to tar college 27.5km
1 trip in 5day
27.5km x 2(trip) x 5day = 275km (*and i dun speed. whole trip just 80km/h, no over 80)

my wira petrol consumption
require RM 60 petrol to do that.. is this normal? the fuel consumption?

I think with RM60 u should be able to do about 300km. But for your car its still under the normal range. Just make sure u do regular check ups and servicing at the required time.

yup, my old wira aeroback 1.5gli also performing quite similar...

perhaps ur trip is having a lot of traffic lights and junctions where u need to stop & re-accelerate?

won so bad la the fc. around 46km for RM10.

maybe.. cause i use mrr2.. traffic sometime can be very worst...


bad? then how yours?

I think it's normal for Wira 1.5 Auto to have that high FC... Everyone I came across who's driven a Wira 1.5 Auto had told me the same thing... Very high FC.

That's because of 3 speed auto gearbox. Nothing much you can do about it. Try observe the engine RPM when you're cruising at 80km/h. I bet it's approaching 3k RPM

change to manual gearbox la... no more headache.... can easily reach 400km per full tank....

for wira 1.5 A, what is the normal FC? 350km per full tank consider bad?

Did u read my post carefully?

Last time my 1.5 wira auto can go 440km with one full tank going slow n steady when it was quite new......now only about 300 n my mom is driving it

Now i using 1.6 wira manual can go 500+ full tank if slow n steady n still manage around 400 with crazy driving n all the time revving

wah..sure or not? even honda city lose already.

about rm70-ish. usually i'll go to the station whenever i see the warning light, say about 20-40km from the first light i see. what about others? how do u guys fare with 1.5A?

mean RM70 for 350km. then 50km per RM10. still ok la the fc..

my 5 years old Wira 1.5 AT also have the similar high FC, but if you step on your right foot a bit gently... sometime can go up to RM10/60km +/-

yup. very normal. used to own a 97 model 1.5A. problem with it is the lousy 3 speed auto. problem comes when you run on highways. 3k rpm is around 90 km/h and when you stay too long on 140km/h, you will see the temp needle going up to hot and you get to stop by at the side of the road to have a cup of tea. new 1.5 wira auto already comes with 4 speed auto. so this problem is a pass. my experience has been twice over heating and once radiator explode and leakage due to over heat. because of the lousy transmission, i decided to sell it off and get something reliable.

if you consider on the 4 speed auto. that should settle the problem of speed vs rpm issue. but do remember the 1.5 soch is way too underpower and you will feel the lack of power, and countless reving to achieve desire speeds.

woah wira that teruk ah? 3rd speed lousy ahh..hmmm can fix ah this problem?

Sure arr new Wira 1.5 Auto now comes with 4 speed auto? How to know that? Plan to buy 1

i always pump 35-38 liters of gasoline....city driving can only reach around +-320KM....

P.S: year 2001 wira 1.5L

hmm... Wira's FC quite high eh?
My 1.6 Vitara... RM95 for 460-480km.
