Yup it's always around 10km/l. Well i have a very aggressive right foot... & my 17" rims  ::)

If i'm not wrong, our Latio's fuel tank is 50L big. Tried many times driving 80KM (city driving) after the warning light comes on, and when i pump till brim the most i've got is 44L in which means i should have around 6L left meaning another 60KM? Trying not to push my luck too far  ;D

Furthest i've driven after warning light came on would be 100KM in NSHW. Managed to only pump 43.5L

bro, the manual state that our HR15DE Engine fuel capacity is only 45l (check section 9-2 Technical Information of our manual), you drove till top up 44l!!  :first:

 ;D So your FC is actually much better than what you previously caculated.

One tank of petrol more than enough for you to cover the whole island, with so many petrol station around it is hard to run out of petrol. If it ever happen to you, please share you experience.

Hope i won't get to share. It's not that i don't come across a petrol station, but that i like to drag as much as i can. now got to be more carefull though. FC still not very good with recalculation. still around 10km/l

It's fun to keep pumping to see how far u can go.. but not so fun when it overfills and spill over.
Happened to me once - the petrol spill marks can be seen on car body even if you rinse with water immediately.   I had to do some DIY polish+wax to remedy it.   :D

I agreed. That's why you got to spend time at the petrol kiosk to pump slowly. It took me very long to reach at the brink tho.
I often had it spilled, but luckily a bit.
