40 TIPS UNTUK JIMAT PETROL KERETA

Assalamu'alaikum & salam sejahtera..Meh kita bkongsi sama tips-tips menjimatkan petrol kereta.

1. Servis kereta ikut jadual - kereta yg di maintain dgn baik akan beroperasi pada kecekapan maksimum

2. Penapis udara dan penapis minyak petrol kena check! (Penapis minyak petrol kene tukar 40,000 km sekali)

3. Spark plug perlu dlm keadaan baik ( Tak hitam & gap OK )

4. Tayar perlu diisi angin dgn pressure yg betul, kalu tayar tak cukup angin, minyak makan...

5. Pakai kereta yg CC rendah tapi kalau nak pakai yg CC tinggi pun boleh cuma system kene bagus la macam Honda i-VTEC, Toyota VVTi atau pakai sistem

6. Jangan tarik pick-up lebih 3000 rpm setiap gear , tapi sekali-sekala boleh la takut engin lemau

7. Go slow man ! jangan speeding .90-100 km/j tu kira ok la..

8. Elakkan kesesakan jalan raya, lagi lama tersangkut (engin idle) lagi makan minyak (kene tukar gear selalu)

9. Kalau parking menunggu tu, baik matikan enjin

10. Berkongsi kereta

11. Naik motorsikal 4 lejang

12. Naik basikal

13. Naik pengangkutan awam

14. Guna tayar kereta yang low profile dan ada special rubber compound (Grip tinggi rintangan kurang)

15. Pakai rim tayar biasa dah le, kalu nak pakai sport rim biar sesuai dgn kereta (dapat pakai macam rim motor lagi bagus - ringan maa... macam kereta klasik)

16. Isi minyak kat stesen minyak yang pakai meter analog

17. Tingkatkan tahap kecekapan pembakaran engin, kalau kereta biasa - 80% daripada campuran bahan api dibakar dgn sempurna. Kalau nak tingkatkan ke 90% pakai high frequency converter dlm sistem spark plug seperti Stromberg ataupun pakai special magnet pada talian minyak (Dah terbukti !!!)

18. Isi minyak slow-slow masa kat stesen minyak. Isi minyak sambil minum kopi dan borak-borak

19. Elakkan jalan berbatu dan tanah merah

20. Gunakan enjin Hybrid (gas-electric)

21. Guna enjin Electric (pakai bateri)

22. Gunakan tenaga solar

23. Kurangkan penggunaan air-con,

24. Kalau kat highway tu, cucuk angin kereta lain (follow belakang kereta lain utk kurangkan daya tolakan angin (Di sarankan cucuk angin kereta yg power sahaja seperti Mercedes, BMW, EVO )

25. Buang Catalytic converter pada system ekzos dan ganti dgn free flow center bullet (Tapi sebelum buat pastikan tahap kecekapan pembakaran engin anda ditingkatkan, kalu tidak banyak asap keluar beb)

26. Ganti ekzos belakang dgn free flow ekzos (Kalu takut bising, cari yg brand baik punyeee, mesti marii)

27. Loweredkan kereta anda

28. Pakaikan kereta anda skirt labuh tapi jangan cecah jalan dah la.Ini bertujuan untuk kurangkan rintangan
angin, tapi skirt tampal tak main sebab takut angin tembus

29. Kalau nak pergi kedai kat rumah tu, jalan kaki lagi bagus, boleh exercise

30. Cari tempat kerja dekat dgn rumah, kalau dapat tidur,makan, berak,mandi kat office lagi best.

31. Petrol mudah terpeluwap, jadi kalau nak isi minyak isi time pagi atau waktu sejuk dan kalau dapat parking tempat redup lagi best. Cuba korang kene jemur.. masak dibuatnye.

32.. Kalau nak isi petrol kat stesen minyak pastikan isi penuh, tak payah nak ulang alik cari stesen minyak

33. Jangan bawak banyak barang. Kalau boleh bawak yg perlu sahaja. Penggunaan minyak bergantung kepada weight/power ratio - power kereta dah fix, bila berat bertambah - nisbah meningkat dan penggunaan minyak pun meningkat. Lagi satu, cuba-cubalah kuruskan badan tu sikit dan turunkan perut tu....

34. Tinted cermin kereta anda (Semua cermin). Lagi kurang cahaya matahari masuk, lagi bagus (cthnya gold dust 95% block heat) sebab ia berkaitan dgn penggunaan air-con dan emosi anda. Contohnya, kalau air-con kurang guna atau guna pada tahap minimum, minyak pun save dan anda pun kurang terbakar atau kurang nak marah sebab ada kajian menunjukkan cuaca panas akan meningkat tahap kebrutalan seseorang itu Bila dah 'panas' mula la jadi samseng jalan raya

35. Terdapat juga teknologi baru dimana kadar ketembusan cahaya pada cermin kereta anda boleh diubahsuai (Kat negara kita belum dikomersialkan) menggunakan tenaga elektrik drp bateri anda. Bila nak parking - gelapkan cermin kereta, bila nak drive cerahkan balik.

36. Disyorkan guna air filter K&N sebab filter K&N diperbuat daripada gentian kapas dimana kadar aliran udara adalah lebih tinggi daripada filter biasa yg diperbuat dari kertas dan mudah tersumbat

37. Cuba pakai micro-compressor (www.micro-compresso r.com) atau Air Injector (www.air-injector. com)

38. Kalau nak pergi kerja tu, keluar la awal sikit, takde la terkejar-kejar. Rilek je drive dan tak sakit kepala.

39. Perbanyakkan stesen Petronas

40. Pasang intercooler pada enjin anda (bila suhu enjin diturunkan, power meningkat dan boleh save minyak)

What Your Car Says About You ?

Assalamu'alaikum..When you see a red convertible sports coupe zooming down the highway, driven by a fiftysomething, balding man with a young blond woman in the passenger seat, two words are likely to pop into your head: midlife crisis.

That may not be the case at all. He could be giving the car--and even a driving lesson--to his college-graduating daughter. But it is true that the car you drive conveys an impression about you, right or wrong. And if perception is important to you, it makes sense to think twice about what kind of car you buy.

"In this kind of economic climate, the kind of image you project is much more important, because you may not want to show off in front of a neighbor who is having a hard time even if you are not," says Wesley Brown, a partner in Iceology, a California-based consumer research and trend consulting firm. "Your car makes a strong statement about who you are."

Who Drives What

To find out what the car says about its owner, we contacted a mix of luxury and non-luxury automakers to tell us what kinds of people typically buy which cars. The information comes from purchasing demographics supplied by the automakers who responded.

And the results aren't necessarily what you'd expect--especially when it comes to the high end.

For example, just because someone can afford the most expensive cars on the road, that doesn't mean they want everyone to know it. There are highly successful people who eschew the bold and flamboyant, instead preferring something more discreet and discerning--like the $246,990 Bentley Arnage T, "the perfect mix of British refinement and amazing performance," says Valentine O'Connor, a Bentley spokeswoman. The car will certainly cost you, but it doesn't stand out and scream, "I'm rich!" the way a similarly priced Lamborghini or Bugatti does.

Buyers of this ultra-luxury car tend to be highly successful, with a net worth on average of $30 million, according to Bentley. Most likely they are self-made executives and business owners who worked their way up the ladder. And they are much less interested in impressing others with their wealth and success than they are in rewarding themselves, Bentley believes.

But don't think all Arnage T drivers are alike. Bentley buyers can afford just about any kind of car; many of them might prefer something much more modest--maybe even something fun and trendy.

Mercedes-Benz believes a Bentley owner is just as likely to own its smart fortwo two-seater urban car. The Arnage costs more than 20 times as much, yet it only gets an Environmental Protection Agency combined 11 mpg, compared with the smart's 36 mpg. Fuel efficiency, a city-friendly size and being part of a trend could be important to someone who'd otherwise buy a Bentley. Or maybe that person would buy both.

"Smart fortwo buyers are defined by attitude and lifestyle rather than age and income," says Ken Kettenbeil, spokesperson for smart USA. "Our buyers tend to be opinion leaders and thought starters. The smart customer could be a CEO or midday commuter, because of [the car's] vast appeal."

Deserving Luxury, Desiring Greenness

While the smart may be a touch small for some drivers concerned about the environment, when gas prices hit $4 a gallon in July, greenness became top of mind to many car buyers. Some of them bought vehicles that outwardly communicated their concern.

Buyers of the Lexus RX400 hybrid SUV were among them. Drivers of these cars are pretty well off; they have a medium income of $202,900 and can afford just about any widely available car. At $42,080 for the RX400, though, owners of this car can satisfy their desire for luxury as well as their good conscience, as the car gets an EPA rating of 25 mpg.

Much as an RX400 owner might also feel the purchase of the car is a reward for his or her own success, that's more or less the sole motivation among those who buy a Porsche 911. The most decidedly male (87%) buyers are successful (median income $390,000), know what they want, work hard to get it and enjoy rewarding themselves when they reach a milestone.

That's not too much of a surprise. But there are some cars or brands that that don't make such obvious statements about who's behind the wheel. For example, what does it say about someone who pulls up in the $42,150 Infiniti FX?

According to the automaker, the driver is most likely a married man in his early 40s who is active, youthful and "enjoys exciting, sensation-seeking activities," says Kyle Bazemore, an Infiniti spokesperson.

But don't interpret that as the driver being immature or unaware of his responsibilities. "He thinks he's younger, but he acts his age," says Bazemore. "He is keen to family matters."

If his wife just bought the similar yet slightly cheaper Infiniti EX, however, he should probably worry. It turns out that the buyer of this car is more likely to be a female who's "an active style-seeker," says Bazemore. She tends to be an empty-nester who is fashionable and "in the know."

As much as the automakers' buyer data and demographics suggest about a particular car buyer, there are always exceptions. Seeing someone drive a smart fortwo doesn't immediately define that person as a CEO or a college student and rule out something in between. One cannot assume every Lexus hybrid SUV driver cares about the environment. And not every Porsche 911 driver is a brash, aggressive, white-collar male.

Well, they probably are. But aside from that one, your car says only something about you, not everything.
