Ma'sha ALLAH, can you guide about how to get the best fuel mileage out of the Fit

choroo (choroo) 2017-01-08 20:52:16 +0500 #162

Full tank gave you 1100 Km ?? That's my 2 months worth of driving right there

It takes patience first of all. It's a process so takes time. Optimal tire pressure in my case 30 in all wheels. Good fuel i used zoom hi octane tank in this mileage. A risky step but minimal use of brakes is one of keys to such mileage. Slow acceleration never push it, although i had few road rages . Good engine oil. Clean air filter. In case of Honda Fit maximally using the EV mode which last few km each time battery is fully charged. Optimal speed which was between 80-90 km for me

choroo (choroo) 2017-01-09 22:31:43 +0500 #164

Well hitting 80-90 in karachi is almost impossible in most cases my average over last 5 years has been 25 km/h .

Plus you need to hit the brakes every 10 to 20 secs.

@choroo Did you finally get your car? I am in the process of getting a GP5. Will probably arrive next week. Will be grateful if you could help me with the initial things to do, with the car, from your experience (registration, initial check and maintenance, etc.)

choroo (choroo) 2017-01-17 23:19:24 +0500 #167

Yes I got delivery yesterday ALHAMDULILLAH. Bro the showroom guy got it registered for me so can't help you there but it'll cost you around 50 k if you are a filer

waqar747 (waqar747) 2017-01-18 08:51:53 +0500 #168

Thanks brother. Can you please check with him regarding how much it will cost for a non-filer. My person is asking 150,000 in total including all kharcha pani for urgent processing. I somehow think this is higher than normal. Thanks for your help.

choroo (choroo) 2017-01-18 09:16:05 +0500 #169

150 k ?? That's way to high I think, I'll ask him today and let you know

waqar747 (waqar747) 2017-01-18 10:40:09 +0500 #170

Thank you. Will wait for your reply.

Which Ron 92 product is best ?? Vpower by shell, altron or hascol's ??

smokin (smokin) 2017-01-18 12:33:05 +0500 #172

V power all the way

choroo (choroo) 2017-01-19 07:49:28 +0500 #173

I asked him and he said much to my disbelief that it'll cost around 110 to 125 k . But still it is less than the 150k your guy is asking for.

waqar747 (waqar747) 2017-01-19 17:52:50 +0500 #174

Yes, I actually got done in 130k. The earlier one was charging too much.

choroo (choroo) 2017-01-19 21:15:25 +0500 #175

File the tax return bro ! It'll be beneficial in the long run . I am saying because I am a Finance expert. Sorry if I am being nosy

choroo (choroo) 2017-01-19 21:20:16 +0500 #176

So I have driven my black Beauty for about 30 odd kms and still finding my stride , getting 25 km/l so far with VPOWER. I have noticed the Ready and EV Light flashing up every now and then I know that in EV mode the car is totally riding on batteries but how is it activated??

choroo (choroo) 2017-01-19 23:21:11 +0500 #177

Can we go R16 without causing any damage??

waqar747 (waqar747) 2017-01-20 05:33:20 +0500 #178

Thanks for the advice I am a filer. Inshallah I will reap the benefits of my filing status later
This is in someone else's name.

BTW car has been registered and will start driving it today inshallah.

Any tips on initial things to do on the car, since I don't know what was done last in Japan and when.

Sorry Dr. Junaid for hijacking your thread, but this seems to be the only active GP5 thread with excellent guidance info. I am also a fellow doc by the way.

Docjunaid (Docjunaid) 2017-01-21 14:54:29 +0500 #179

No worries man
I think it's good for other members with Honda Fit to learn from each other and share thier experiences.
