actually how you guys calculate the FC?

everytime left 2 bars i will promptly fill up and thats like 300km only, sums up to around rm60-70

Pump to full, without adding in more fuel once it stops. Then drive to whatever distance u want and refuel again to full.

Use the total mileage done for the trip/tank and calculate vs the amount of liters that you pump.

for my car. dont use proton EQ on IHU. just custom 00000
SC tell me 'its like that, dont use proton EQ ; for me i think is program/software side messed up, so EQ not work as intended.
asked few guy they claim normal on proton EQ.
flashback for new comer what i meet with proton EQ problem:
Proton EQ absolutely better sound output (before DSP), but it make my rear speaker produce almost no sound
i literally take 3 months + to notice, getting feedback when i first time carry enough passenger to seat at back.
so now i use custom 00000 and install dsp. more tuner and playable
*
I will give your suggestion a try. See if custom to 0000 will be better or make any difference to PROTON EQ. For me, the proton EQ really suck balls. The other preset EQ such as Popular/Rock is good.

Also will see if it solve the channel output problem on my DSP while waiting for the replacement harness

Yesterday got one shop posted in fb, ppf for windshield. I ask around for how much for ppf at sunroof, was told rm500, windscreen rm1k.

Maybe proceed with PPF at sunroof as windscreen already got insurance. Is it work to prevent crack of this ppf?

Same, top left on the windscreen. Right under the 8 inch dark windscreen tint. Stick by RFID center.

Work most of the time. Failed twice before. First car that have RFID tho, so not sure about the failure rate.

Been using Smart tag all these while

Your windscreen insurance can be use for sunroof as well. As for your question on the crack on PPF u mean crack on the sunroof?

I just cant find time and go to RFID center. How long would it take to install in RFID center?

Very fast is no people queuing. For me I took maybe 5 mins for registration and payment of RM 35. Then installation took 5 mins and testing of signal.

Front lamp is better because they are nearer to the RFID scanner compared to your windscreen. Detection is earlier for the 2 meter distance

For those who have renewed Insurance do you follow your existing insurance company?

Last time my SA said if I change insurance company the 7 benefit offered by Proton will be voided, currently I'm with Allianz thinking to switch to Etiqa which suppose to be part of the panel for this Proton Insurance as well. Wondering if this is possible.

Sunroof not included in part of windscreen insurance?

Personally I think pointless to PPF Sunroof as the impact of stone enough to chip the glass would be the one at front windscreen, you seldom have object crashing from above directly, even if there is such threat, that kind of impact will most likely be enough to shatter your Sunroof even with PPF installed, like example your car turn turtle.

Please enlighten me if you view this differently.

in normal usage, 9km/L plus minum is the AVG FC for x50.
because you got press the padel. if you plan to get 12km or 13km. your driving experience surely super boring.

FB when you say you can get 12km/l surely people label you protek proton.

still, when i post fuelio screenshot to proof FC consider ok-ish. some even claim me adjust the number to make x50 FC look good. lol
here with it, with scroll down a bit show 12km/l. recent weeks idling + flooring a lot.

Ini Fuelly, got app but is web version, not as fancy.. but been using this since >5 years back on all my cars

If search my profile you will find X50 have highest FC, but that's also because recently I moved to city with shorter distance and hilly ride, so not apple to apple comparison to other ride.

my previous location is mostly highway ride.

normally fc should be how many KM you go divide L fuel you refill = xxkm/L. but in fuelio seen not count like that...
will try it soon.
did it support key in previous date fc data?

For myself I average about 8L/100km. If the other way round is it 13km/L?

If smooth traffic everyday I can get maybe 7L/100km. For full city I get 10Km/L.

So for the atlas app calculation is quite on point. Right now it shows 7.8L/100km

Well, I m satisfied with this fuel consumption being an SUV with 18 inch wheels. Just that the fuel tank is small, wish it was larger by 10 liters

There is date option for you to select, but so far I have never tried putting previous date.
My guess it shouldn't restrict as this web app is quite basic to begin with.

May expect some alignment issue while using the app, it is really the most basic app without much optimization.

In term of unit u can change to your preferences like L/100km Gallon/Miles semua ada

i don think there will be much benefit of getting 13km/L since it will be boring to drive with.
