QUOTE(balwr @ Feb 22 2009, 08:20 PM) yup... true... i using vios and i do get better millage with petronas... compare with shell... haiyo drink petrol man.... especially the v power... 1 cent no use... expensive some more... mobil i tried oin myvi also not so gud... caltex also not bad on vios compare with shell... almost there the millage... it depends lar bro....my wira aeroback with shell v-power full tank (rm90 = approx 45 litre) can run up to 560km... normal shell around 550km alsoboth fuel using in kl city area....u try v-power when u are going to genting...the performance is noticable....  different car different fuel consumption...even human also has different taste mah bro.... Added on March 1, 2009, 3:43 pm QUOTE(Empathy @ Feb 22 2009, 10:38 PM) That depends on what car you drive. Some owners say Petronas give more mileage. Some say Shell...while I say Caltex. You have to try it yourself first to know whether your car gives more mileage with Petronas Primax 3. Later try to experiment with other petrol brands. agree agree.....for my car . 1. Shell 2. BHP 3. Petronas 4. Esso/Mobile 5. Caltex the way u drives affect the most.... Added on March 1, 2009, 3:45 pm QUOTE(loong2020 @ Feb 22 2009, 10:48 PM) well..i think no different...i pump shell/mobil/ or wadeva petrol..not much different...interms of power...all same only wat car are u driving? if u has more horse power...basically it makes no different. try it on underpower car, i bet u will able to feel the difference...

QUOTE(SleeplessEyes @ Feb 23 2009, 09:00 AM) Here is a comparison of the FC in petrol. +1ESSO > CALTEX > Petronas > SHELL For my Nissan, Esso gives the best mileage and best engine peak power. Petronas does give modest results of FC, but pickup can be bad. If possible avoid Shell at all cost. But then again, like I said, Petronas is just "so-so", sometimes near to the borderline of SHELL |

I use Shell coz of bonuslink and close to my house.
Anyway in M'sia all petrol oso refined by 1 company only... and no its not Petronas Go to PD & u will know. Different co. then add some additives and do marketing & Consumer falls for 'placebo effect' From what I know, Petronas do not do refining, exploration or pumping out oil, wonder what do they do except 'joint-ventures' |
