10) Do you use any after market additives?
          No.

Try to maintain constant rpm say 2000rpm, means 0 acceleration. Base on your load and car condition, you try to cruise at different speed to find the optimum speed with lowest rpm. Eg. Between 100kmh@2000rpm vs 130kmh@2500rpm. which one better?...

look behind and ahead, drive with your head. you can minimise brake and overtake car with 0 acceleration which save your oil. So my FC tips only apply for NSHW driving. In City, I just drive lah... if FC is sooo important for city driving, I will get a Kancil lah:thumbsup: can overtake Latio anytime.


ans 130

Had my 2007 latio A/T only for the last 2 weeks, have also done my 1k servicing on my 8th day at around 1200km. I do travel alot as in real estate line. 50% highway/50% city in travelling. Fuel wise hitting around 13.8k consistantly for the first 2 tanks, now on my 3rd tank and tracking if after 1k servicing got any impact, happy to say at half tank still seeing close to 240km which means about 480 - 500 till next top up or about 13.5 to 13.8km/litre. Petrol only SPC 95 to date.

3rd month, battery went dead...totally dead..even TCM recovery guy was puzzled how can it be dead flat till no cabin lights even. Got it change free of charge, only waited them for 1hr during Sunday.

Steering sounds...complaint during my 10k servicing...after 2week, cable arrive from Japan and got it change.

So far these are what I encounter but I still a happy owner of my Latio...despite I getting 10.5km FC but...living with it now.

Wah!!! Getting only 10.5km/l is abit low for latio..Your foot must be quite heavy  ::)
I'm getting around 13.6km/l on average worst is about 11.5 to 12km/l but not 10.5.Must have some problem or you must have installed aftermarket enhance products.
