i'm averaging 9.5L/100km. usually 10.2 if im travelling 90% small roads. i only managed to get 8.5L/100km when my commute was 80% once. I'll be so happy if my "Distance to Empty" shows 850km....

I average 10-11plus km/L. The only time I hit close to 13km/L was when I drove to Melaka. Managed to hit 12.8km/L. And surprisingly, I got the best FC (non-up North) after I pumped V-Power. Close to 12km/L. I just pumped V-Power over the weekend, so will monitor again for this tank.

I'm getting 10.1-11 litres/100km. I was driving on cte last week with the car computer showing 50km remaining, then after 1 min, it just show --.-- I was freak out, stuck in a jam somemore, finally exited after about 15km to top up fuel.

Is there anyway to set our fuel display to km/litre instead?

The electronics can only calculate the instantaneous FC. The actual, and more accurate, method will be to just take the total distance travelled for that tank and divide by the amount of petrol pumped in. Very easy. After sometime, you will roughly know what's your FC as you drive.

Btw, any of you get the $2k service voucher when you bought the car? What can this 2k buy other then standard servicing? Can buy service package or other products like wiper all this or not?

I don't have this voucher. Then again, I will only got back for major servicings. Minor servicings I will still go back to my trusted mechanic for cheaper servicings. C&C servicings are really cut-throat to the max. Experienced them with my previous ride, and dun wanna repeat the whole ordeal again.

Guys...recently I notice my aircon vent is blowing warm air on the passenger side whereas the driver side is blowing cool air. Aircon is set as normal @ 22.5 degree.
I drove in to C&C for checking & was told is this normal...they claims it has always been like this & I have to lower the temp to below 20 degree in order to enjoy cool air on the passenger side as well.
20 degree is really too cold for me...now I have to use dual zone...passenger side set at 20 degree & driver side set at 22.5 degree (driver side is always cooler).
Can you guys help me to check...whether you have the same scenario as my K5?
Today I started the aircon as normal at 22.5 degree...it was ok for a while but passenger side blew warm air after 15 min of driving.

I've never encountered this before. But it's something to take note and observe.

I've recently noticed some squeaky sound when my K5 crosses humps, especially higher humps and if my speed is slightly above 20km/h.
Anyone experiencing this issue?
Plus, do you guys have weird sounds coming from your brakes when you depress it? I do get quite a bit of sound especially if I don't fully depress the brakes.
It happened to my previous ride too. Just not sure is it normal or does my brake have problems too.

Thanks in advance. Have you considered Bosch Aerotwins? My choice of wipers, but on the pricey side and no replacement wipers. Have to change the entire thing when it is due.

Thanks in advance. I got mine from Kia Service Center Pandan Gardens, can't remember the exact cost but < $10. Autobac also have, different brand & slightly more expensive.
