mas matipid ang 1.5 kasi ang engine mas less hirap sa small body nya. yan ang nakikita ko. ewan ko alng kung totoo. hehe

You mean 1.6?? 1.6 and 1.4 po ang Fiesta... IMO naman its the transmission that helps it especially kung madaming high speed driving...

Regarding the Fiesta tripmeter
From the overseas forum….



Do give it a try. Tell us if this one works.

where's the reset button? I think there isn't any?

[tidus1203]

Wala ba sa left stalk? I think you can depress it but then again that was with the Sport variant...

[wrexckz]

yup me stalk pala dun sa me tachometer....i'll try that

[wrexckz]

it works!!! thanks Tidus.....me trip meter pala...press once for trip meter...press for more than 2 seconds to reset...bakit kase dun nilagay sa tachometer yung control ng odometer eh...hehe...anyways i am glad....kala ko forever na ko mag take note ng trip distance sa celphone eh...

[tidus1203]

Yung left stalk di ba sya nadedepress? Sayang di ko kasi na check nung test drive since abala ako sa enjoyment of driving...

Checking Page 17 and 18 of the US Fiesta manual, it does have one but its all part of the TRIP COMPUTER which the Trend lacks. So it could be the Trend does not have one and the Sport should have one since meron syang trip computers... The manual states you press the left stalk to cycle through the different trip readouts...

Here a print screen of the manual... Page 17 and 18





And the left stalk I was talking about...

Well that's good news! See no need to be paranoid!

[wrexckz]

may stick na pwede mo ipush dun sa me number ng 7 sa tachometer...that is the control for trip meter ng trend variants....

[tidus1203]

Ah so iba pala duon sa left stalk sa Sport... Sa Sport the left stalk can be depressed.



See the arrow that says trip yeah press that repeatedly to get to the different trip data and hold it to reset the tripmeter.

Nice Info sir...

ride safe

The Fiesta Sport has both the small stalk on the tach and trip button near the bluetooth button.

As for FC, I've acheived 8.1km/L on pure city driving (this is during rush hour traffic). I think I'll be able to fill-up again by this weekend and so far it's looking a little better than the previous one.

same thoughts. that's the beauty of this forum, if use constructively . we can share info on our new toy. Soon my Fiesta will be up for more exploration

[reefshark]

Was able to get my 2nd gas fill last night and as per manual computation, I got 8.8km/l.

The above figure again was acheived almost always on rush hour traffic driving with very small and short sprints in the morning in between the traffic zones (hitting a max of 60-80kms).

[reefshark]

Filled-up again last night and was happy that my FC is better. I'm thinking if it was the change from Sea Oil to Shell, better gas pedal control or both. Anyway, it went up to 9.89km/L

Hmmm....come to think of it, it could also be from "less traffic" in the mornings as I could cruise between 60-80 kms much farther than the previous week.

Any other Fiesta owners/drivers about their fuel consumption?

[pista_ni_jon]

will post mine on my next full tank. btw, sir reefshark, thanks for the info. matanong ko narin,what fuel are you currently using? salamat!

I always use Sea Oil as this is near my place and cheaper than the big 3 but last friday, traffic was really bad and had to fill up and Shell was the nearest gas station. This is what gave me the 9.89km/L so I filled-up with Shell again just to see if this is the one that would give me better mileage.

Pareho lang pala sa Getz 1.4RS ko ang FC ng Fiesta. 9 city at 14 highway.

But I drive mine hard, up to 150 sa NLEX, ganun pa rin kababa ang consumo. ACU on palagi

[xpac]

8.2km./liter yun 1st computation ko, usual route from sucat via SLEX to fort boni, with once a week trip to cybergate pioneer..hope it'll improve on our next full tank..btw, ours is sports variant..
