i dont have a trip meter but i usually check when i drive home from uni, 220kays on the freeway and about 50kays around town before i fill up and i usually put in 25-26L for 270kays which is UNDER 10.0L/100 :P
occasionally it goes over depending on how much city driving i do and how hard i drive around town but other than that its never been more than 30L/270k

I have an AUII i6, drive pretty sensibly. Just got headers though so i need to re-calculate

anywhere between 8L/100km (freeway only) to 20L/100km (spirited city driving) ... i think this tank i'm averaging 13-14L/100km
But the tank before this one was pretty bad.. i got only 300kms out of 47litres Last edited by neb; 25-05-2005 at 03:51 PM. |

Not sure about per 100k's, but i get about 270km out of a full tank with normal driving, so that would equate to around 25litres per 100k's :O It's on gas though :P

The trip computer says I have an average of about 7.9L/100kms, but I wouldn't put too much faith in it anyway! Sitting on the highway at 110km/hr, the instantaneous reading is usually about 8L/100 kms. Put the foot down and it can skyrocket to about 50L/100 kms, and when it's idling, it for some reason says 99L/100kms! : . Overall I get about 600kms out of a tank.

99L/100km at idle is because the car isn't moving. So, to cover 100km whilst the car isn't moving, it'll theoretically consume an infinite amount of fuel in the process.

It's using about 13L/100kms at the moment, but that's because I've been leaving later and later to get to uni, so I'm having to accelerate faster and faster...
Usually sits between 10-11L/100kms. I get that happening with my fuel guage too, ea silver ghia, bit annoying really. All happy to begin with, then gets depressing! Last edited by BuuBox; 25-05-2005 at 07:39 PM. |

Usually about 13.5 L/100K, at the moment it's around 14.
EL V8 auto. Only city driving, it's much better on the Hwy.
