place like taiwan..there petrol also hike recently. but they got 1 good part is....every packet of items or food or snacks..they will put a whole country fixed price...so they cant simply sell the item with the price they like..for example...coke...some places selling 1.50 some 2.50...but in taiwan..the item will put for example..200..u can below that price but not lower then that. i think whether is malaysia got petrol anot really doesnt matters..because the petrol we having not suitable for cars..(thats what i heard). just blame on someone who is buying future petrols...

That quite high, mine just 8.4l/100km, also auto. Just got car last Saturday.

U stepping very hard on your pedal? brows.gif

ur car is still new yet..ur ECU setting on RPM is not yet remanage yet...new car u can feel power roaring in ur engine with only 2000 rpm...u can few the acceleration...of cos FC high
thats why when u go to ur 1st service they remanage ur ECU and change to 3000-3500rpm to produce roaring power.. 1 of the way to make FC lower...but acceleration is not as good as new...
my car is going for 2nd service this saturday.. and my current FC shown in meter is 6.5-7L/100km....mine is persona iafm auto......and persona start high FC after u go up to 100km/hr...best is below....persona doesnt have FC as low as City or watever eco car....

Hulk wan u guys to know that Govt cheat us. Imagine digging resurces from own soil (not even imported ) but sell at international market price. Telling everone that they subsidide...what subsidise u tell Hulk??. Govt need only sell to us Rakyat at rakyat price say RM1.92 / L..so that Govt earn less profit. Now Govt point us that if Govt dont sell u guys at market price of RM3.00/L , they can sell it to overseas at that price & eran FAT MONEY. Puih!!..somemore tell Rakyat that they subsidise...say lah they sell at Rakyat price lah cause oil belongs to Rakyat. Govt is an agency to sell oil on behalf for us. Not to make money...............clever to paint a different picture.

Is like catching fish at fathers pond & sell the fish to father at international price & gain fat margin.

Compare to other none producing oil country somemore..comparelah income per capita, price of cars, no toll charges, low tax bracket.

Hulk angry...hulk SMASH!!!  remember to see Hulk at Cinema today.

HULK.....i going to watch ur movie...hhaaha

eh what i heard is the petrol we are selling is not suitable for vehicle usage...
something with the RON...or something else...
if the petrol is not suitable...no point selling back to us rite?
because there is alot ppl worried their so call VTEC cannot produce fullpower with certain of petrol.
i must state here, i also feel the burden of petrol increment because my salary is categorized as no tax salary...that means under 2k....

i think u have left out somethg as Malaysia only produce pure oil, not the manufactured oil.
M'sia still do not have the technology to manufacture the pure oil into petrol / diesel we using now
which means that M'sia produce pure oil, sell it to foreign country for manufacture, and buy back the manufactured oil (Petrol / diesel we using now)
M'sia do not direct sell the oil to the rakyat. but can said that M'sia should use the profit of selling the original / pure oil to subsidy the rakyat.
*
ya...malaysia is diggers...dig petrol only...refinary i think not done by here.

Hulk, in some expect we cant direct compare to middle east country nor brunei...and i think comparing to thai and sg or US even UK doesnt make any sense too..because all country have different policy for the ppl who live in there...my fren's sister stay in germany...he said if there is a car washing shop near ur house...u cannot wash ur car at ur house...the shop owner can sue u because u are not letting them to have the bussiness...and do u know germany tax is 50-60% of salary? that means u earn 4k minus 50-60% of tax then the left overs is urs... 1.8k or 2k left....
tax is damn high in german...so as the petrol....cheap car is no matter anymore.... because u still pay so much for the car to run....because initial cost is high...

if u think like a business man, i cannot deny that petronas is doing anything wrong..as a business man profits is no1.
how to take care of people like us is gov job...then it is the Gov job to talk to petronas about the most effective way.
blaming on petronas and gov alone isnt fair.....if want to blame ..blame those who vote for them....

in certain point i agree, but i don agree that the business man profits is no. 1
but do u know that its the government who operating the Petronas, Petronas is belongs to government M'sia
The pure / original oil is belongs to the rakyat, not the government
secondly,  not to be forgotten, M'sia main objective and no. 1 purpose is to service and protect the rakyat
with the above point, i don c any clues that the government's Petronas can generate profit from it own rakyat (Malaysian)
and do u know anythg abt social responsiblity? its a trend that all those company should do somethg for the social, environment and the consumers~
Peace~~ icon_rolleyes.gif

yes u are correct...in some issue profits always come in mind before service come second..
because u always think about profits then only come service to keep the profit going..
yes petronas is own by the gov...but own doesnt mean u can do what u want....i not really sure about th board of directors in petronas...but if gov is the owner there will only some seats in the board of directors..
decision made with votes of majority. because there is also people who invest in petronas who are not
Gov servant.

yes i agree on social responsibility, thats why its the Gov work not petronas work....petronas work is to pump to petrol and sell it with high price and take benefits from it...service come later...pump petrol and transportation and selling itself i think it involve thousands of staff...
profits is from exporting...and part of profits go back to subsidize...this what i know...
the petrol rakyat using is paid by the subsidize amount paid by petronas...that all.
every litre of rakyat using, petronas contribute few % of it...

im just try to explain in the other way of view...
im not work with both petronas and gov..
i work as property management.hehe nod.gif

air flow device,voltage stabilizer,k&n air filter are very easy to install.just the ground wire i still cant n not dare to install it myself.coz if i install it in wrong way i afraid will damage my car's ecu.becoz ground wire is connect from battery(negative) to alternator,engine's block n.......not dare to try it.better waste rm25 ask ppl install it for safety.

[/quote]

those these items is consider 1 set??
cos for example...turbo need bigger intercooler.
so if put ground wire need put the others to control??

34L will STOP??!!! wow ur fuel tank signicant very small leh...c the specs in proton broshure stated 50L...

It stated also result of fuel consumption @ 90km/h 6.6L per 100KM

that's mean 26.4L for 400KM, so 26.4 x RM2.70=RM71.28 tats cheap leh!!!

Is it true?? Maybe its highway la

But i assume u used  40L for 430KM (city drive) so

40L x RM2.7=RM108 / 430Km = RM0.25 per KM

Consider ok le at 1.6cc car as Avanza 1.3cc is at RM0.22 per KM

Hmmm hav to reconsider again... thks u all...
*
hehe...rm0.25 per km while my company milege claim is rm0.80 per km..
why bother.....lol
but persona FC is not the worst is the best thing we can get.....
FC should be the normal 1.6 should have then ok for me..
don like 1.3 mazda but drink petrol like 3.0....lol (i know i know rotary engine ma)

I just got my BL Persona last Friday.
Haven't have much chance to test my car with long distance driving. Anyway, quite satisfy with the RM46K paid.
Smooth, quite and spacious car indeed.
The FC is still ok lah, 9.4L/100km showing on the meter with 110km total mileage.

With RM46K, this is a really good choice lor....
*
your car FC go lower after 1st and 2nd service...
im must say proton persona is quite stable in high speed and smooth...
even my brother who "prefer" foreign cars also agree persona is ok with the comforts and performances....

what you mean by redline lah??? what not good and not good....

redline means the red lining on 7k rpm...
as different car the redline is different...
rev until redline easily heating ur engine and its not very good if u do it frequently..
cos this engine not fully build for redline racing...engine might break down..
and with low milege...the risk is higher...

5.5k-7k is just wasting ur petrol and sound pollution..
