Please tell me is my FC 11.4Km/L normal for manual car? I am changing gear each time at 2000 rmp the most and why I can't hit 13 Km/L ????? My mileage now is just 4600KM. Going for my second servicing soon. Hope to hear from anyone soon.
Cheers,

My Sunny FL(M) is coming to 2 years old and I would like to share with you the performance of my car so far:
I get an average FC of 14-15km/l. 70% highway 30% urban driving. Aircon low usuage and speed try to keep 80- 90km/hr.Petrol using Shell 95ron. Engine oil Castrol RS.
I have done the following so far:
1) Install Splitfire spark plug.
2) Gounding. (took the combo package with item 1 @ $156)
After a few months,I get a simple Cold Air intake done.
After doing item 1) n 2), FC and performance reach what I have now. I personnaly think gounding is good for older car only.
As for the CAI, I realise it doesn't help much when I keep to 80km/hr. But when I try to go faster @ 90km+, it doesn't have high impact on my FC.
Everything else is original stock. Even my wheels are original steel rim type.
Hope that helps.
