hi, mine just changed 1 pair (front) to 195/60/15 from stock tyre last sat and really can feel a big drop in FC too, eg. b4 change, can hit 130 to 140km  (this is partially due to the reseting of ECU by autosaver) for the 1st 1/4 mark but now only seeing abt 100km. Shall monitor and feedback after few more tanks.

hi all, like to feedback my FC as per above. My FC not much diff in local but really can see a big diff in M'sia NSHW, eg. normally can only hit 16+km/l in NSHW but my last FC (during CNY back from Penang, almost 100% HW), can hit 19+km/l which is to my surprise too.

**p/s: Believed the reseting of ECU at Autosaver (especially on RPM) b4 CNY is really a great help, not a change of tyres.

After my 1st full tank, managed to achieve 15.61km/L and trip computer also reads about 15.62km/L. And immediately today changed tyres to 195/60R15 PP2. Will continue to monitor and hopefully after my 1K servicing this sat, it would still be as good.  ::)

Gong Xi Fa Cai Bro Ying, the traffic quite smooth with occasionally short jam. It's ard 10am (on 2nd day of CNY), from Penang to Tangkak (small town next to Malacca) but travel with really slow speed at 90 to 110km/h (only occasionally hit 120 ~130km/h especially overtaking)

Yo Bro,

You considered 90 to 110km/hr is really slow speed ? Dare-devil sia.  :devil2:

seriouly, if not because of traffic jam I can't drive at 90kmh or less at high way at all. It is very easy to overshoot 110kmh with my CVT without me knowing. May be I should check my shoe got weight or not.

Lucky you bro LatioR, It took me 3hrs to clear just Tuas and MY checkpoint on 24 Jan morning. Then slow traffic all the way to Jasin takes another 3 hrs, that's with some overtaking from the "3rd lane".
FC still 13kml for that tank.

Yes, I second that. With CVT, the RPM goes up till 40km/h before dipping a bit and picks up again and stays at 2.3k rpm and stays there for my case. While the engine sound stays the same, the speedometer just keeps going up and up. If you are not checking on it, you won't even know that you have hit 100km/h in a short while.

Mine is average 12.. still not the kind of FC i am expecting. It is most prob my right foot...

Oh.. to add to the chatter. i travelled to Penang on the 29 jan (way before the eve of CNY) Nice trip with zero jams and heavy traffic. Averaged 110-120km/hr and clocked 600km on an almost full tank of Esso 5000 (RON 95). IF only i can get these on local roads..

I find 12km/ℓ acceptable for city driving. This is what I have been getting also. I'm doing 80% city driving myself.
