Latio not as good as mention.....

[detach8]

aye for those using non-stock rims you cannot just report your FC like that because if you use 16" rims your tyres may be bigger or smaller, making the distance inaccurate and thus incorrect FC... u need to compensate for this difference

6. Make your trips when your engine is hot. Cold start consumes the most petrol

Do you mean start the car only when the engine is warm ie blue light lit ? But leaving car idling with engine on will waste petrol ?

For me, almost move car slow when start engine. By the time you get out of the MSCP or to the main road, engine already warm. From here, then you can drive off faster. Isn't this a better way to save petrol and time ?

[clarence]

What I meant is to do all your driving trips to run errands together, rather than to split it into 2 days, if time permits.

Eg. If I can do my supermarket shopping and collect something from my friend's house one after another on the same day, I would prefer to do that, rather than split these 2 errands into 2 separate trips over 2 days.

Okie, okie. I agree. Planning in your route and multi-tasking is also important for energy saving. 

Also to add to your list :
- avoid hard acceleration and hard braking.
- observe your BMI

[Jazz]

Hmm...HW speed of 80-100, slow accelertion and never exceed 2.5k rpm...considered heavy footer?

Hmmm .... changed your rim or tyre ? What your mileage then ?

[LatioR]

I challenge him few times...then met another SA who actually advise me to do the test...else I also wun know...think sometimes some SA just want to get away it.

Hi Keromond, to add on to the FIRE , my last tank gave me 13+km/l liao.. ..hit ~490km before the light up..

I did...16 inch RM rims n Falken 912. if thats the reason for such lousy FC (I think in another thread, some 16 inch do get 13+ FC), I just accept it la..

Think of it tat u can overtake pple better and faster when cornering lor.....heehehe...sayang sayang...

[david1881]

My fc is quite consistent at 14.5km/l, partly due to my acceleration is slow.  Pedal more also can't feel the G-force, might as well just let it pick up slowly & save petrol.

Bro..u want to try try 16 ma keke

Bro. u serious to let go yr 16" rims.? mine is stock rims 10/10 condition but stock Toyo tyres 50%. any pics to show ?

[LatioR]

Hi Keromond, i thing i observed, my FC improved after i removed my baby seat (believed weight >7kgs). With yr 16" rims, the weight been added on -> the FC will drop lah...

8 months owning Latio sedan 4AT and many problems occur.

1)Whole interior lots of rattling noise.
2)Aircon not cold even at 18 degree
3)Sterring wheel turning got sound.
4)Engine noise becomes loud.

Sent to TCM and did the following

1)Insulate A pillar panel,side dashboard and center dashboard
2)resercure driver side aircon vent
3)Change snap ring for steering.
4)Change aircon cooling coil,thermo sensor and cavuum.Reset aircon system.
5)Change body comb,evaporator assy and amplifier.

Good thing is the advisory attend to all my problem,
now Car is back to normal like day 1,,,But the issue is "Is Latio really that reliable"
Don't know when problem will start again.
My previous Corolla G9 at least will last longer before problem occur.

new things are not built to last as good as the older days now for everything... :)

[spyder_696]

Actually went to ubi TCM...cos my gearbox got some funny grinding sound when I slow down..wonder y also..happenned twice n when the mechanic go rd test with me..basket..it become ok again..anyway...back tp topic...the mechanic also told me...SURE can get min 14km/l one..if they hook up the meters to do the FC test..CVT can get 16. No matter how u go argue with them, end of the day, nothing much TCM can do for ur FC...just suck thumb n live with it..
