[QUOTE="alantiong, post: 589063, member: 19754"] Hi guys, very interesting discussion here. I wish to share my two cents worth. For a start, please do not be fooled by mech and salesmen that running on 97ron or vpower will save you from injector issues of direct injection engines. I will highly advice for you guys to go back using ron95 to save that 30% running cost and use it for injector replacement over 100000kms. Average guys consume 12litres per 100km. Which translate to 22.8 cents perkm on95 compared to 33.6cents per km. difference of almost 11 cents per km. Over period of 100,000km, its rm11,000 saving. I think thats enough for whole new sets of injectors and few more bucks for new paint job, set of tyres and so forth. The bottom line is ron97 is not containing any lower sulfur than ron95 in malaysia. By the way, i build 70% of petroleum retails undeground storage in the country so i guess i know a bit of the product stored in my tanks. Just a different way to look at the economics. Cheers..
