felixmiao:
this is to reply base on my own experienced...my previous car was H.City 2004 IDSI which only req. RON 91 (stated in the manual) n i pumped the Caltex RON 92 since the very first day i got my car..I have tried RON 97 occasionally too coz some petrol station like Petronas dun hav RON 92 petrol..from wat i noticed is there are really no difference for both of the petrol...i can't feel any power lack for RON 92 n more power for RON 97...even the mileage r the same for both..they r just the same...the only different is i save more for RON 92 (when the fuel price at the highest is RM2.75 for RON 97 n RM2.6 for RON 92 - which mean i saved 15 cents for every litre i pump in..n averagely i pump 40 litre per tank...tat is about RM 6 saving per tank) after the car served me about 3 years n 9 months...the performance i stil the same...the most important thing is u must maintain ur car well...change the engine oil follow the schedule...ensure the tyre r not deflate..it never failed me becoz of the engine prob...(but it let me down becoz of the aircon not cold at all) mayb i m heng only lah...i dunno...but i m stil usin the RON 92 for my latio since day one lah...n i m comfortable with the performanc n also the FC too...anyway judge for urself lah...if u feel tat by using RON 97 is better then u mah stick to RON 97 loh..tat's ur money anyway..so no need to argue one lah...btw i dun care wat ppl tellin me about how good is the RON 97 or 98...i know better for the car myself..as long as u happy lah...cheer :) btw i m from Malaysia - Penang.

I think there's no issues for your City and Latio to begin with, as their min RON requirement is 91 RON.
My concern is pumping a lower RON that what your owner's manual states.

but i dun think we can stil find any brand of petrol that selling the petrol RON which is lower than RON 92 in either M'sia or S'pore liao...i think the lowest is the RON 92 de....mayb in T'land is different case lah where u can stil find the RON 91 petrol...that is y most of our car manual stated the min RON is 91 coz in T'land their lowest petrol RON is 91...n most of our car r 'imported' from T'land one (like the 'T' n 'H' brand) :D

Nice to see your short FR based on different RON. This will further shut the smart alec mouth of different RON contribute to FC and power. :thumbsup:

Hi bro Felix (i guess u sb guy right? as my friend carry the same name who is guy :D), Just switch from SPC98 to Esso (5000) and not really see big different (it's just on my 2nd tank), i'm a die hard of SPC98 since i own the car 3 yrs ago (even with >14yrs old car corrolla i've previously)...My trial will eventually prove that i'm waste of $$$$ to go for 98 (though lower grade is equally good)...will try 2 more tanks to decide (last 2 tanks pump abt 50% with Esso 5000 and 50% with Esso F1,98 in Malaysia)
**Me from Penang too...Bukit Mertajam..Permatang Tinggi (to be exact)..Glad to meet fellow friend from Penang here in Latio Club
