This fill is when we did the convoy from KL to M’cca. I had a full load with my parents and sister inlaw fully occupying the back seat, and also the trunk was filled with bags. It was very hard for me to keep up with the convoy on my usual driving style (light feet). I had to press the gas more and also sometimes switch to ‘S’ mode, to keep up with the other cars which have very little load. This consume much fuel and hence, explanation for the low mileage.

I found a distint difference in the Km in my list versus on whats shown on the car. Somehow I seams to missed out 440km, where the car is showing 10924 and my total computed KM is 10484. From the Km difference, it seams like I’ve missed out one of the filling. Therefore, this 19th filling could very well be 20th filling. Anyhow, I’ve discarded all the old recepits, and so no traceabilty on the old fillings other than what’s on my excel table.
The computed Km/Liter is still hovering at 13.9km/l. After 300km in, I took the car for the 10k service, and manage to make another 257km. I am expecting to see an increase in KM/L since I’ve done the service. Tire Pressure is optimum and engine just been service. If the KM/L is still at 13.9km/l, then there is something wrong the car.

It looks like generally the computed fuel consumption have increased to 13.9km/liter. I’ve checked the tire pressure and they are optimum. It is now close to 10k service, and I am suspecting the fuel consumption increase is due to the fact that it is time for the 10k service.
