I've recently had my 50k service and nothing bad was reported ...

did you get them to check the "long term fuel trim" figures? these DEFINITLY affect fuel economy...

i think you can reset these by removing the battery cable?

If i'm wrong, pls correct me with detail explaination.

by leaning out the AFR you will use less fuel.

My DC2R and provides about 400kms for a full tank.
I think i have 35litre tank or somewhere near there.... wish petrol was cheaper...

I agree with quangsta. I've filled up with BP ultimate and seem to me getting better mileage now. So far half a tank = 220km

So hopefully when I drive it till the light comes on, it'll be about 440km give or take.

But thats much better than the 350km with Optimax.

I thought all 98 RON fuels were pretty much the same. Or has it got something to do with the integra engine?

after reading this thread, i really think my fuel economy is stuffed. i only get 330 to 350... HEAHAEHAEHAE or i just have a heavy foot without knowing.

how many times do i see a petrol related thread man lol.. na it depends on how u drive u cant say.
