Most bros here getting 11km/L.

Don't press too hard on your right pedal

Mine current meter at 1/4 mark, mileage is 600km. Maybe this tank can break my previous record but still far far away towards our FC king one

How do you try not to press hard? 2nd gear move off your RPM reach until?

I try to stick to 2 or 2.5.

But a lot of people keep tailgate me behind....

Yo bro tiang, yr merc manual gear shift??

Usually movg off reached 3k rpm n after near 2.5k rpm n 2rpm followed.

If I'm on e HW, I ll set e cruise ctrl at 100km Which's approx. 1.4-1.5rpm automatic.

If I'm drivg a manual car, movg off 2k rpm 1st 2k rpm 2nd n e rest 1.5rpm.

Wow bros... you guys are really good!

Anyway, thanks for all the tips!

Will look into it.

I do sale one, but i live very near JB. So usually I pump V-power there for S$70 per full tank.

I think i will just drive as per normal as my monthly petrol is only $350 to $400 max. Not really hurting me so much.

Cheers!

Since last Nov, Shell new station Punggol distribute discount vouchers booklet. So why nt and tried twice thus far as gotta 15% off plus redeem cash point fm my UOB cards. Total sumed up almost 22-23%. Shiok!

Even more shiok was that my 3/4 hitted 193.5km today on Shell ron95! Before was ab 170++km at 3/4 tank. Same routes to and flow fm offi back hme, sunday hardly in use etc.. Amazing!!

Wonder is it Shell fuel grade and wat will be my total mileage when fuel light lights up?? Always w Caltex Tetron ron95.

any ideas how u get the SHELL voucher?

Oh...since Punggol Shell station new, their marketg approach was to mailed out notice to all Sengkang/ Punggol residents fr collectn of the promo 6 mths voucher booklet if we pump min S$50 w any shell fuel grades on our very first visit. 15% Voucher can be used immediately w the first pump too!

Oni fr Sengkang and Punggol Shell Station.
