I add 1% biodiesel for every full tank. say, 1/2 liter biodiesel for every 50 liters shell diesel. It seems to have improved my FC from 8.5-9.5km/L to 9.5-10.5 km/L city driving. and it seems to have even increased the power. I started using it since Jul 22, 2008. I have been using biodiesel with my old 1999 starex ever since biodiesel came out. The effects are the same as with my carens. plus the emission is better. 100% biodiesel po? San po kayo nakakabili? up to 5% biodiesel ang kaya ng carens (stated in the manual), gusto ko sana i-try.

Dati shell gamit ko eversince I got my carens crdi lx m/t last December 2007. Average of 10.5 km/ltr, minsan bumaba pa ito ng 9.5 km/ltr. I recently switched to petron for my last 2 full tank. My FC increased to 12.2 km/ltr on my first full tank and now I've already logged 381 kms with still half on the fuel indicator. I usually shift above 2k rpm, mixed city-highway driving. Las Pinas- Makati via NAIA and Makati- Las Pinas via Coastal road. Hey icem@n- nakita ulit kita last sunday sa bf resort, patawid ng casimiro. ganda talaga ng mags mo! I just switch to Shell today, my km reading is 439.1 and filled with 46.35liters full tank, fuel consumption is 9.47 km/liter with 225 km highway from manila to capas then manila the rest city driving, highway speed is 120km/hr to 140km/hr. just want to observe if there is pinning sound in the morning where engine is cold, usuallu the pinning sound disappeared after warming up for 1 min to 2 min. I noticed tha t petron diesel have more bubble when filling, so you you would have a hard time in measuring the number of liters for full tank. unlike shell or caltex there is little or no bubbles. When measuring FC its more accurate for shell or caltex. I will make update again for the next full tank using shell and the pinning sound in the morning will it be lessened using shell.

Manual kasi akin. I don't step on the gas pedal when on 2nd gear.Malakas kasi ang torque sa second gear.Then I maintained 60-80k/h on 6th gear( i also keep watch not to let rpm reach 2) and had window closed and my aircon on. Maybe its with the fuel. Shell people said they put new additives daw, mas matapang ang amoy ng bagong diesel nila but mas fuel effecient daw.
