  bdw.
  
  i dun drive.
  
  its my dad car.
  
  at one point of time, he was onli driving at night. and traffic was quite minimal at that time. he dun ram the car. he drive conservatively. going frm 2 to 2.5rpm and maintaining speed at 90-100.
  
  unless neccessary he wun zam the car.
  
  that was when we hit for the first time 15.
  
  usually we hit frm 13+ to 14+. depending on where/when we use our car.

  how you tell? how did he calculate? was it mostly on the highway and long distance driving?

  mostly long distance. thats why can hit 15.
  
  we took distance covered divided by litres of oil used.
  
  we always keep track of our distance de.

  this maybe off topic la..
  
  i seriously doubt FC depends on how ur right feet reacts...
  
  for the past 2 weeks ive been travelling to and fro to the same places each time... each week is about a tank of petrol..
  
  1st week i maintained within 2.5-3k rpm.. i had pretty bad consumption.. dunno.. but it seems that if i dragged it a little higher.. i had 10km/l for my car..
  
  mazda6 with 18".. 590km on that tank.. compared to 487
