Hi ED520/Tategoi,
Wonder why you guys are getting better consumption than me. Mine's reading abt 14.6 now with 2.3K mileage. BTW, do u have any of the engine stalling problem and did PML uploaded some software upgrades?
Cheers.

maybe it will improve as u progress, my mileage is at 11.5k now. it also depends on how u drive(heavy foot etc) n on wat kind of roads u drive more often (stop go traffic or e-ways).
yes i exp the stalling prob n pml seemed to hve fixed it with a software upgrade, but i still exp the jerking prob w the car. did u get this prob?

I was initially complaining abt higher fuel consumption but now it seems I getting the reverse. Will continue to track and update.

How often does your engine stall? This warrant a complete investigation from PML. Fortunately I have not experienced any stalling yet. I have not gone back to PML since taking delivery of my car in early July, and my car is of Mar 04 production, so it should still be running on pre-v12 software.

i also had the car stalling upon ignition thing, but it got fixed with the new software.
the jerking prob feels like the gearbox is unable to engage a higher gear when i am accelerating. this usually happens when i am moving off from standstill and i am accelerating. the car just shudders and jerks a couple of times and i got to ease off on the accelerator to prevent it frm jerking further....did u exp such a prob?
