Never akong nagkarga na hindi full tank so I don't experience that problem.

Seems like it nga sir thank you. Btw sir anong gamit niyong fuel? Is it better to stick to one brand of fuel like shell for example and what Ron should I use? 91 is the recommended but I heard that Shell's V-Power is better but in terms of fc is it better than the fuel save?

Same FC. No difference between Fuelsave and V-Power. I fill up with V-Power when the price difference is less than 1 peso.

I began using 93 octane (before that was the lowest octane) then a few years back they reduced it to 91 octane, and i noticed a P500 fuel delivers me a shorter distance

I made it a habit to log my distance travelled for every octane i load just to make sure which one gives me more distance for my P500. That habit proved to me that higher octane delivers more distance so i eschewed the lowest octane ever since. My P/km is always less with a higher octane than the lower octane fuels (considering i get more in terms of volume) i tried before, so i get to save more in the long run

Besides, using higher octane ensures that engine knocking problem is practically nilled

I gas up 95 octane on the city and 98 on an out of town trips

Would it be worth gassing up with Petron Blaze? I believe that's 100 octane.

One more thing: i cant seem to find the Android Auto app in the Google Play Store. Whenever i search for it, so many other apps show up in the list but i have no idea which one it is. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

I think it's because it's not officially available in the Philippines yet.

Blaze would be to much. 95RON will be just fine (even for turbo engines). I have never filled up my turbo engines any fuel higher than 97RON.

Nope. Not even 95 RON is necessary.

I have over 100,000 km of data across different fuel brands, different octane ratings, different traffic conditions, and different cars.

Not a single car had knocking issues with 91 RON. Not a single car had a discernible difference in consumption because of higher octane.

The biggest factor for fuel consumption is your traffic condition. The difference between 14 kph average speed and 16 kph average speed is already about 0.5-1 km/L. That's a bigger difference than trying out different brands of fuel.

Premium fuel has better additives with better cleaning agents than regular fuel, but additives comprise a very, very, very small percentage (less than 1%) of the total volume of fuel that in the end, it doesn't even matter.

I worked with the petroleum industry for most of my working life and here's straight talk for you - we try to make you think that the difference between regular fuel and premium fuel is bigger than it really is. Why? Because we make more money out of you when you buy premium fuel.

Now, knowing those facts and data that I laid out for you, you decide if you still think it's worth it. Some people don't mind paying P1.00-P2.50 per liter more just for that warm fuzzy feeling they get because they bought higher-tier fuel.

You can download Android Auto here:

Android Auto 2.4.7229 APK Download by Google Inc. - APKMirror

You won't find it in the App Store because it isn't available locally.

Ganyan din sa friend ko, almost 1 month na nagaantay, pang lima daw siya. Cash buyer pa naman, mukhang priority nila ung mga may loan, or ung kukuha ng in-house insurance. Meron kasi kami nakausap na agent from laguna, sure ball daw malalabas unit basta in-house insurance, medyo nalula lang kami sa quotation niya na P1,170,012 for the base model. Parang ang mahal masyado ng insurance.

Weird ng business model nila, marami gusto bumili pero wala mailabas lol.
