How are your 320d doing so far?

[docrayboy]

yeah...the good thing about the Vector is that its much cheaper than the powerkit-also tazzham allows you to try it for free for a few days. Easy fitting-just plug n play.

My Dragon Fuel hunt, I drove to Pandamaran Caltex just before econsave and there are all BioDiesel on 4 pumps, no catch. Then I continues my hunt to Batu tiga lama. When arrived the pumps, wow, I don't see any BioDiesel stickers at the pumps, so I went into the office to verify if they have any BioDiesel and they reply, yes. He said they are BioDiesel pumps but they didn't put on the BioDiesel Stickers.... so dissapointed! Then I ask where can I find pure Diesel, he said all caltex in Selangor till Melaka are BioDiesel!

Dragon fuel is gone !!!!! What I have been feeding my 320d was B5, not pure diesel due to the poor planning of petrol company did not change the label at the pump. So
the myth of pure diesel is better is only psychology as far as I am concern. Sorry folks for the dragon fuel which turn out to be "cicak".......

But you have chosen Caltex, I also feel that it is more kick. But we don't have many chance to refuel...haaha...

Some says BHP, Some says Caltex, Some says Petronas. I think I have to work out a test....All smart phone come with vibration meter....

Have tested Caltex, Petronas, Euro-5 Shell, Euro-5 Caltex. No difference if you're running on a regular 320d. Big difference if you're using a tuned 320d, Euro-5 diesel is noticeably smoother

Designed to keep your engine in top condition

Modern diesel engines use highly precise injection technology to help deliver great driving performance efficiently and with reduced emissions. Over time, deposits can build up in diesel fuel injection systems - reducing engine power. To sustain great performance, it is critical that these extremely precise and sophisticated parts of the engine are kept in top condition.

Shell V-Power Diesel, with its unique formulation, is designed to remove and prevent such deposits - enabling diesel engines to continuously deliver an improved driving experience.

I have done that to Krabi, Koh Samui, Koh Lanta with my 4x4. My experience tell me that 3 days two night is very tough. Its take almost 16 hours from KL to Phuket if you drive straight (2 hours stop in between for rest).

Suggest 1st day drive from KL to Hatyai, say you start from 8am, you will reach Hatyai 3pm. (take into consideration of rest and speed trap along NS highway). You
can reach Hatyai in 4 hours if you Tekan all the way.......................

Overnight at Hatyai, refuel DRAGON FUEL, 2nd day proceed to Phuket , you will reach Phuket around in 6 - 7 hours . (stop for teh tarik and coffee, beer also can)

3rd day move around Phuket, check out by mid day, drive all the way to HATYAI, you should reach Hatyai by 8pm if you Tekan a bit. Spend one more night Or you can choose to go back
to KL. You will reach KL 2 am. (you can speed like mad, mid night no speed trap, but you can't drive fast due to fatigue cause by the long journey.

Just to share with you my experience and if timing is right, I will join you guys.
