Hmm....mine also the same... pattern..leh. I monitor few more tanks

[Zylon]

let me finish my tank first. coz i just change to shell, use to use caltex b4 shell.
my friend tell me got to keep changing brand after 3 tank, see which 1 give u better FC.
for caltex i got 12-14. hope shell can give me more, coz this is my 2nd tank. later try other.

[fickle]

300k at 1/2 tank? thats very good.. CVT?

Yup, CVT...

[fickle]

can i check if u r using synthetic oil??

my 240-246km is achieved when i am now using mineral oil & total distance is 4392km

If urs is the same status as mine.. then my latio seriously got problem

still on mineral oil...  mileage currently at 6220km.  Changing to synthetic only at 10000km.

its probably my driving style, very light footed... and most times either 1 person or 2 persons in car. 

boot minimal stuff (spare tyre intact though)

tyre pressure around 230-240 pumped every time i pump petrol.

[BlackieLatio]

Hahaha.....finally i can hit 285km/l at half tank on my 4 mth old car using mineral oil. I am using Esso 5000 80% HW 20% city

I tink it really depends on how u drive...also..if u have body kit and treat ur car boot as an additional storage space...the FC will not be gd also....

hmm..is it advisible? tot better to stick to same brand? anyone can advise?

[clarence]

You can mix SPC, Esso, Shell and Caltex together. It will not damage your engine.

I use only Esso as the other brands give poor mileage and poor points redemption.

Caltex and Shell : 1 litre ($1.90+) = 1 point
Esso : $1.25 = 1 point and 750 points can exchange for $30 voucher.

Caltex and Shell needs many more points to change for petrol voucher.

[Jo_Lee]

me also just changed to Esso 5000 after 8 mths of Shell 95...not only the point redemption is more
attractive but I get additional 3% rebate on top of the 5% rebate given by Citibank dividend card.

FC wise is the same as using Shell 95..constantly getting 13km/l..

[clarence]

Yes, you are right.

It is a 13% discount if you pay for your Esso petrol using Citibank Dividend credit card.

5% station discount and 8% Citibank rebate. Plus another 3% discount when you redeem 750 Esso Smiles points for $30 petrol voucher.

Best thing is that Esso gives a further the 5% station discount in the $30 petrol voucher that you claim.

So with a $30 petrol voucher, I can pump $31.50 of petrol at Esso!

Hm.m.m.m....does this means tat u get more than 13% discount for a normal pump? I have discount card tat can get me 14% at caltex for normal pump...

Hmmmm.....does this means tat you get total of 13% discount or more for a normal pump?

How does ur discount works? If u pump $50 and get  station discount of 5%, then u pay $47.5. Then citibank gives u another 8% discount on $47.5 tat was charged to the card, so the final amt tat u pay is $43.7?

If it is 13% of $50, then u pay $43.5 right? So which discount u get?
