From where I can get the genuine air filter in Karachi, is it oil poured filter? Alternative which brand air filter I should go for.

Yes genuine filter paper is oily..and you can get from any authorized dealership.. If you go for alternative local filter average will sharply decrease personal experience..

My car giving fuel average of 7.25 per litre.
What should I do to improve it. Recently oil change, oil and air filter also

i used engine oil SHELL HELIX HX5 SL/CF, A2/B2 10W-40. Two days back I used Japanese oil filter but local air filter. Today I purchased genuine air filter then will calculate again the average.
My tires are Dunlop 195 65 15

pwuser149604446944 (Ahsan Iftikhar ) 2018-06-25 18:53:42 +0500 #28

10w-40 oil is thick use 5w-30 oil for better fuel economy..be sure air filter you used is oily one.

munif.khateeb (Munif ur Rehman) 2018-06-25 23:24:34 +0500 #29

Since I just changed oil, for next time I will used your recommended oil.
Yes oil filter is genuine and is oily one

how do you calculate your average?

munif.khateeb (Munif ur Rehman) 2018-06-26 10:01:18 +0500 #31

Right now after every 100 km I refill the tank and calculate.

munif.khateeb (Munif ur Rehman) 2018-06-30 18:17:10 +0500 #32

Hello friends

I again refilled the tank, now it's giving 8 km/like.
Should I expect more from this car in Karachi city drive. How much tyre size impact the fuel consumption. I'm using 195 65 15

dayrider (dayrider) 2018-07-02 11:04:34 +0500 #33

Driving style matters, even in karachi, it should do 10kml.
Whats your routine usage, in kms if possible

munif.khateeb (Munif ur Rehman) 2018-07-02 13:10:40 +0500 #34

I try to drive very smooth, rpm not cross 2000 .

dayrider (dayrider) 2018-07-02 16:45:26 +0500 #35

Shift between 2500-2700, below 2000 is under-powered, hence consuming more fuel

munif.khateeb (Munif ur Rehman) 2018-07-02 21:49:19 +0500 #36

I never knew this. Let me try this also.

Thanks

Hi friends,
my car issue for low fuel average still not resolved.
Last week i returned from Naran and on highways my average was as below

on N5 - 11-12 km / l
Motorways - 12 km / l (@ 120 km per hour speed)
Motorways - 14 km / l (@ 100 km per hour speed)
on hilly road - 6 - 7 km / l (without AC)

Are these above fuel averages okay or should be better.

When i am back to Karachi, it gave me again 7 km / l.
In Islamabad i changed lube oil and used 5W 30 (Shell) from G8. i also using genuine air filter of Honda.

Please advise me what should i do to make the fuel average better.

Get the cat converter checked, check the plugs too.
And if these things are clear, try driving it on a tank of high octane and see if the mileage increases

Brother, IT'S ONLY A MYTH HIGH OCTANE IMPROVES GAS MILEAGE. The higher the octane rating, the less chance of it misfiring, THAT'S IT. All fuel under govt regulations has detergents that clean your engine. So that isn't a difference either, in a normal car, there won't be any performance difference.

agree with u high octane only resolve misfiring issue nothing to do with gas mileage
