is it still applicable for new car now days to drive for 1st 1000km under 90/110kmj?
as some of us know that QC person at the factory surely drive a new car out of assembly line like a mad man to make sure the car don't breakdown b4 they put "LULUS" sticker
as for me, after 3 hours get my car from the dealer, already push it to 120kmj

this LINK might give u another look of break-in process

back to the basic of driving
high speed + unplanned acceleration = FC is high
low speed + planned acceleration = FC is low to moderate

even Grand Livina 1.8A can get 56.6 km/l by drive it slowly
(from the paper it said the winner drive it less than 60kmj) sweat.gif
Nissan Lightfoot winner
Story from paultan.org

BTW, my Saga BLM FC usually @ RM50 = 250km (60%highway, 40% city)

lolz... like any usual car lor, release clutch quite fast, car will jerk, then eventually died. Been driving sentra and iswara before quite some time, so used to release clutch and press gas immediately. Always mistook the same thing with blm, so the car died, especially in front of traffic light  doh.gif  U know la KL, if u slow, sure got people honk  sweat.gif  Oh well, i hate stopping my blm on the hill for sure  sweat.gif

Yup, i managed to grasped the timing when switching between gears 2-3-4-5, so can minimize the overrev  nod.gif  but still a little fail on gear 1 and R, either overrev or died on the spot  laugh.gif
*
i guess we have the same prob la
everytime i had to stop on hill, feeling like taking JPJ test again sweat.gif (that was 9 years ago)
another favorite for "enjin mati", at Touch & Go lane.. maybe i should buy SmartTag transponder la

p/s: is it ok to skip gear 2? i think since rpm on gear 1 already high (3K-4K), i just skip to gear 3 hmm.gif

Ahhh at last manual drivers complaining =p
At least dont make me so regret for not buying the manual although im still capable of driving the manual.

everybody know how to drive manual since we get our license with manual car
it just that i used to be drive auto for so long time that make me forgot i driving manual now
that why always overrev tongue.gif

usually i skip gear at toll.. to move of course have to use 1st gear
than keep the rpm till a little bit more 3K then change to 3rd gear
doesnt seem jerking so i think it ok la
my friend who drive 2 door Citroen ZX does this with his car
doesnt seem a prob to his more 10 years old car
or maybe because his car got more power?
he just use 1-3-5 gear only
