    I don't know but our car was already converted when we bought it. It's been doing pertty well in the last 8 years. No problems. It is very well implemented. :)

    iN Da RoOM!
    here's a tip for both manual and automatic>>

    don't drive fast with windows open. open windows increase air drag on the car to a point where fuel efficiency is lost by up t 20% +

    Nope. It was not. But really well implemented.

    Here is the fuel meter:

    What we do if Trip Tronic . Cant Chage to Manual .:lol:

    Oh Hell No Petrol Gas. Diesel I'm Using More Than 4yrs . Very Economical .

    In My jeep 3.0L Turbo . 8Km cn go per liter. I'm asking can go like that petrol or Gas ???? .
    Yes :P

    Our car does 8kmpl on gas in city limits. Considering that gas is at Rs.80/l, it is cheaper. :P

    What I'm doing these days is;
    1. No big accelerations....picking up smoothly
    2. RPM never goes above 2000
    3. No sudden brakes. I try to bring it to a halt smoothly.
    4. In the traffic blocks, I change the gear to neutral
    5. Not using the accelerator in a slope...let the force take you down :D

    like that....


    thanks for the info bro... thanks alot:cool: ...
