Please help oo
I hav a toyota avalon 2002 model XLS as this is my first ride. I think it consumes a lot of fuel tho im not sure. From my house to my office reads 19kilometer or miles and on a weekly basis I buy 2k fuel on Monday n by Friday it shows red. I do not drive around just house to office.

Secobdly I notice dat wen I turn d ignition on n off d fuel keep going down. Sometimes wen im driving I choose not to off d ignition cos I notice if I off it n on it again d fuel will really go down but if I dnt the fuel remains where it is. Sometimes Short distance will consume d fuel. iv asked a mechanic to check it for me and he says nothing is wrong with my vehicle.
Plz help me guys as I feel the car is putting a whole in my pocket.
Tnx

J0hnTrevolt:
about 10 minutes drive sir. And if im to go by public transport I would be spending 1k weekly.

thornapple:
The impression i have is that your car must be the most fuel efficient Avalon i've ever heard.

That avalon runs on regular not premium.

Wrong

princejones:
supported fact

Readonee35L:

Avalon's owner's manual of that era with 1mz suggests premium fuel "if you expirience knocking or if you want better performance."

chukel:
u have just turned it upside down to suit u. Unleaded fuel is recommended. They went further to say leaded fuel may cause knocking and reduced performance.

Alright sir

I expect apologies...

diportivo:


20min per day

Times 5 is 100 mins

That's like from Lagos to oyo town on a 2k fuel

My illustration is vague,cos driving pattern and co will come into effect if u r travelling, but mehn,if that fuel consumption is still much for u,u myt need to buy okada to supplement it o.that one,na 500 naira fuel per week o

Honestly,while u shld do the calculation the way gazzuzz asks u to,I doubt if ur MZ-FE V6 engine is consuming fuel

U cant compare ur personal car and public transport as the comfort u get with driving ur own car is what u r paying for

You too funny guy,that ur money you spend in a week to buy fuel,i spend in a day to fuel my honda evil spirit v6.
