Fuel average Honda city 2014 prosmetic

[shaidbokhari]

I bought a city 2014, mileage around 120k. Mostly in stock condition.
I bought this car considering good fuel average but it's pretty bad. Getting 9-10 in local and 12-13 in highway. Both with very soft foot and careful driving s.
Recently done tuning, changed air filter,,using 10w zic . But nothing improved.
Sparks plugs are suggested by a mechanic to be used of irridium. Currently it's using some ngk plugs.
Any suggestions and experience are welcome.

To be very honest thats an okay Fuel average for city 1.3 prosmetic.
On manual you get 12-14 in city and 16-17 on long with light foot.
You should put irridium spark plugs izfr6k-13.
And be cautious of fake plugs.
Plugs improve fuel average alot as they effect the combustion.

Change all fluids (engine Oil, Brake oil, Gear oil, Coolant etc) whichever required.

Change all filters (oil filter, Air filter, cabin filter etc) whichever required.

Change spark plugs, use Iridium plugs (they last long almost 1 lac milage)

Do an engine flush before changing Engine Oil

Use Fuel System Cleaner once

Use Liqui Moly Ceratec Once

I hope doing all these measures, will definitely improve your car's fuel economy and ride quality.

In addition to the above suggestions, switch to 5w30 Fully Synthetic

[shaidbokhari]

Although I am using 10w, should I switch to 5w ND mileage of car is also 120k....is this ok?
As I have been told and read many suggestions here that 5w shouldn't be used after 100k mileage.

[shaidbokhari]

Any suggestions for irridium brand and price..somebody also suggested qabli original plugs...as they are the only one original,all other are fake..

[shaidbokhari]

Any suggestions for all suggested oil brands? Is there any steering oil?

[uzair3337]

You can switch to 5w30.
Use Total 5w30 or Honda 5w30.
Iridium Spark plugs are NGK brand and model is IZFR6K13.
Buy from a reputable place as there are many Fake plugs in the market.
Dont buy kabuli Plugs.
No there is no need of Steering oil.

Total Quartz 9000 5w30 Engine Oil
NGK iridium laser spark plugs

[zia1288]

Its made up story by the mechanics and oil change shops with no evidence to back up. Many people including myself have been using / used 5w-30 fully synthetic in cars having milage more than 150k as it was recommended by the manufacturer. 200-250K is nothing for modern engines.

Thanks...will try on next oil change.

My steering rod started giving minor noise...which will increase gradually. It just irritate...any idea...should I go for repairing or new one.
Fuel average is still an issue.
Getting 10 in locals and 13-14 on motorways with speed around 100-110 and without ac..

[shaidbokhari]

What's the possibility of clutch plate as it took a lot of effort after 90kmph to get it to higher speeds.
Starting pick is all good..
Incase of bad clutch plate, it could be reason of bad fuel aswell.

[zia1288]

Have you got checked / cleaned the Cat Convertor? Ususally initial pick is not good when the clutch plates are worn.

You can get ngk laser iridium plugs from Nadir autos Rawalpindi. I got 4 plugs from there around 11K. I am getting fuel average within city 12-13KM/ltr. On motorway I got even 21KM/ltr from traveling to multan from Islamabad but it also depend on the quality of petrol. I got my tank filled from Islamabad and it gave me average of 21 till Faislabad with 2 passengers. Then I again refilled from Faisalabad and it gives me average of 17Km/litre on the same trip. I would suggest you get your fuel filter checked too. Use genuine air and oil filter. On 5w30 synthetic oil you can definitely use it if your engine is in good condition as I am using 5w30 on my 2014 model Odo reading is 150K and it is running perfectly fine with 5w30
Alhamdulillah
