2010 Getz GL 1.1 epsilon petrol engine. 30000+ nearing 31k kms. Currently on Royal Purple 10w40 non HPS full synth + Baldwin B1402 oil filter. DIY PMS including valve clearances. All stock configuration including 165x65xR14 tires. Loaded with 3 seemingly fit adults, 1 teen and 1 baby. Full trunk and boot inclusive of baby stroller and baby car seat. Started with full tank of unleaded, full to the brim/filler mouth. Tire pressures at 34 front and 32 rear.
First leg:
Shell Pulang Lupa, Las Piņas to Shell Rosario, La Union via C5 Extension-Kaingin Road-Dona Soledad-Slex-Edsa-NLEX-SCTEX-TPLEX-McArthur Hwy. Average 90-100km/h pure highway driving except for subdivision drive and moderate traffic at EDSA Guadalupe, madaling araw.
243kms total distance, 13.01 liters unleaded full to filler mouth = 18.67 kms/liter.
Second leg:
Shell Rosario, La Union-Kennon Road-Baguio City traffic-La Trinidad-Baguio City traffic-more Baguio City traffic-Strawberry Farm La Trinidad-Baguio City traffic-Marcos Highway downhill-Mc Arthur Highway-TPLEX-SCTEX-NLEX-EDSA-Dona Soledad-Dona Soledad 30minute traffic-SLEX-Sta Rosa Exit-Tagaytay City-Aguinaldo Highway-Zapote-Shell Pulang Lupa, Las Piņas.
507 kms total distance, 28.01 liters used and refuelled full to filler mouth = 18.1 kms/liter. Matipid pa rin despite all the experienced uphill action and traffic in Baguio City.
Some notes:
- Stayed in 2nd to 3rd gear during Baguio uphill climbs, max rpm used is barely 3000. A/C always on because of Baguio pollution.
- Coasted on downhill Marcos highway in 5th, 4th or 3rd gear depending on speed with moderate brake-release-brake intervals, A/C off.
- Coasted on Tagaytay-Silang Aguinaldo highway downhill on neutral (kids, don't do this at home) averaging 60-80km/h on gravity, engine speed idle at 850rpm, A/C off.
- Rest of highway and city drives, A/C always on. #2 fan during daytime, #1 fan speed during night time.
- Yes, car only has 30000+ kms because both me and wifey have our own bikes/scoots that we use for daily drives to work.
- I use an onboard computer (android software) connected to ECU via Bluetooth adapter to monitor intake manifold vacuum, trip KPL, accumulated KPL and realtime KPL which controls my gas foot. Hehehe! However, the projected readings were quite convservative compared to real life results. The trip KPL for the first and second legs averaged 16.9 and 16.8 kms/liter respectively compared to 18.67 and 18.1 kms/liter respectively.
