this only means you are a geezer who didn't go his homework before buying.Originally posted by Paul Chan:I bought a new Nissan Latio Sport and for the last one month failed to cross 400km on a full tank. Went back to see TC for a review and they told me to ensure petrol oozing out and visble at edge of openere. I did that and reverted back to TC that Nissan Lattio can only clock 1 litre = 10km and nothing more!!!
They have yet to get back to me on my complain. I trusted the brand and bought it without even test-driving it or seeing it at showroom (booked at last year's Car Show @ Suntec before the car even arrived).
Anyone out there can pls advise what TC should do? This is obviously a very big and scary problem - imagine what it means to the Nissan brand - inconsistent quality control from Japan?
What rubbish! TC must be some kind of incompetent, fly-by-night, ah beng workshop. Letting petrol ooze out will damage your paint work. Go back to their authorized dealer Tan Chong Motor to check up.Originally posted by Paul Chan:I bought a new Nissan Latio Sport and for the last one month failed to cross 400km on a full tank.

Nissans have always had relatively higher FC as compared to the rest of the jap brands.. and especially so when compared to toyota.. whose vvti tech enables it to register better FC..Originally posted by Paul Chan:I just received a call from TC. The rep said her boss told her since my 1 litre goes foraround 10km, it's 'normal' to register 10-14km for Latio! I am supoosed to just 'shut-up' and 'live with it'!

In the recent year, nissian is famous for outer look and cabin design, as for engine FC, well can say it sucks !!! take a look at sunny, cefiro .... etc, all totally famous here for super bad FC. So don't expect Latio to FC to be good.Originally posted by Paul Chan:I bought a new Nissan Latio Sport and for the last one month failed to cross 400km on a full tank.

Already, using this method I havejust crossed 120km at the 1st quarter mark. Hitting 13-14km/l shouldnÂ’t be a problem. As the test with me in it showed, it could easily hit 16.5km/l on a drive test with a lot of highways!![]()
