    2.0 po yan. Sorry. Mga sir im having a problem with my FC. I'm driving a KIA Carens A/T diesel and i only get an average of 6km/L . I drive most sa city and highway paminsan2. There must be a problem kasi sobrang taas. Im using 225/45/18 Tires? WIll this affect? I just had my PMS tpos nagpafull tank ako.. 6km+/L still. Tsk3. Hindi ko rin pinalalampas sa 2k ang rpm pag accelerate. Any ideas on how i could improve?

    In other countries, meron Carens 1.6 CRDi.

    Locally, I think its only the Kia Carens 2.0L CRDi.

    sir normal lang sa carens diesel dahil sa tire/rim size. my A/T carens crdi produce the same FC for city driving( short distance travel 5 km run) but for highway driving i can still reach 13-15 km/l pag conservative driving. my tires size right now is 225/50/17 from 205/60/16(oem specs). since mas malaki and pabigat ang tire/wheels niyo talagang big effect yan sa FC niyo. palitan mo yan ng small tire/wheels size(205/65/15 or 205/60/16) oem specs for sure gaganda FC niyo.

    also try niyo mag purely highway driving. pag naka less than 11km/liter ka with conservative driving(average speed is 80-100 kph) then may problem FC niyo.
