Steve-W Thanks for the interesting figures. They make sense to me as my wife tends to have a heavier foot too.

Looking at your location, you probably don't need to use the airco much!

When well run-in, the engine revs very freely and on an uphill overtaking manoevre hit 6000 without any sign of stress.

You are right about the aircon Jubilado although today the sun did beam down on us and she did pop it on for a bit. I bet that action has put her down into single figures.

from the thread on MPG, here are some of the adjustments and observations i have made. i tend to run the engine about 2000 to 2500rpm

QUOTE

How i have improved my mpg

driving school roof sign removed +3mpg
tracking set straight +2mpg
TPS from 7 to 5 at idle +3mpg

Scangauge, just watching how the mpg alters under different conditions
Michelin energy savers have just been fitted, so its wait and see what effect these have.

my monthly average has gone from a low of 39mpg for November and had a high of 47mpg in April.

has anyone else noticed their mpg get worse when its wet ???

on a quiet road keeping to 40mph i have the following results

warm and dry 68mpg
hot with A/C 60mpg
mild and wet 58mpg

I use car in 1500 -3500 rpm.
And i use this speed and clutch number.
10km -1
20km -2
35km -3
50km -4
70+km -5

And i have good fuel economy and i drive 80% in town and 20% out of town. Maybe this help to someone.

Hi Marjh,

You still get the FC of 10km / liter?

Me too... my RPM is around 2.5k to 3.5k, but I still get 10km/ liter in average... I don't know what should I check and what should I do... sigh...

I buy this car because of the FC too.

Hi
I'm also from Malaysia, Mine i10 is manual 1.1 inokom 2010. i pumped Esso Mobile can only get maximum at RM50 for 350km(27liter for 350KM). mine RPM is around 2k to 3.2k. it seems to be not as it stated in the advertisement and the award 2009.-.-''' the FC is too jialat!

i dont know if this thread still alive but i want to share my experience with regards to the FC of i10. i bought one last oct 2011 and i got the same experience. i am only consuming like 7 to 8 km/ltr. i keep my rpm as suggested but is it something to do with the break-in period since my odometer reading still less than 10,000KM.

please advice. thanks!

I picked up a 61 plate Classic a fortnight ago. On my first long trip, I averaged 52mpg. This was despite cruising at an indicated 80mph (3600RPM) with the lights and heating on. The car has only 900 miles showing now, 350 when I set off, so is still tight. My pre-facelift 1.2 Classic was eventually coaxed to 48mpg on a similar journey after 16000 miles, so I was quite happy as this seems to show an improvement. However, it is early days and the current tank doesn't seem to be doing as well. Watch this space. On a plus note, the new model seems quieter and quicker.
