I'm also on SPC ron 95 since day 1. Been great for me. 50-50 urban/city. Getting at least 8L/100km 🙂 I feel not worth paying for 98 as the FC wasnt fantastic, tried it twice.

Have been using Ron 95 since day 1 too.

Was getting 7.3l/100 km when new. Now 2 years later, getting 7.6l/100 km. M6 2.5

Guys, am getting more than 9L/100km when i last checked. Is it because I use 98 petrol?

FC depends on alot of Factors,like Load,Type of Traffic & your right Foot.

Yes agree with u, have been quite careful with my drive...especially the right foot.

 

So does petrol type makes a difference?

In one test that I conducted years back, the 98 was less efficient than the 95. But as 98 will give you better acceleration, there is also a tendency to be harder with the right foot. 

When I switched to another brand of petrol, there is little efficiency difference between 95 and 98.  Different companies also have slightly different formulations.

Although 98 will give better power, I feel that it is not worth the price difference since much of it actually goes to the taxman instead.

With the savings from 95, I prefer to put it my own additives which give me better performance than 98 and at much lower costs.

Hi bros n sis,

Need help to clarify.

My car (just 1 month old) is off the bronze color looking Titanium Flash Mica. However, in the LTA log card, it states grey as primary colour.

Is this correct?

Probably there are only few primary colors to choose from, grey is the most close one

Yea my FC for 98 was worse than 95. So enough said. Haha

Anyone interested in installing M6 rear spoiler?

 

Just found out from TEK the cost is more than $900!! Didn't know it cost so much.

 

Anyone know of any outside shop that can install cheaper? Do not want to order online and do it myself.

 

Thanks.

You can try jdm autocare at kaki bukit. Got mine fixed at around $200+. If you want cheaper alternatives, can try aliexpress which cost less than $100 but may not fit properly and some does not come painted.

Thanks will check out JDM, $200+ is reasonable.

Btw guys the turanza t005a that comes with out M6 has a different thread pattern. My tire thread attached is very much different from the pics in the internet. The middle block has no through channels.

You can compare the link to mine below.

Am just surprised that same model can have two very different design and therefore outcome.  FYI, my tyres are just 1453km old. Just completed 1st servicing.

Hi,

The in car camera that came with the car is very ugly. I would like to change out the camera but I noticed that its sticked onto the solar film. If  we pull out the camera, will it damage the solar film? Anyone tried that before and can share their experiences?

I requested to relocate the camera, agent did shift the camera to the left, no damage to solar film.

Day 1 after car collection, went down to switch out the Blaupunkt dashcam to another brand. No issues with solar film. Probably no damage because it was installed only for a few days at most.
