Fuel Consumption by smsglory(m): 9:53am On May 17, 2017 |
Greetings to pro's in the house, I want you to help me check if my car fuel consumption is normal. I use a 2006 Sienna Toyota... I noticed I used 20 litres of fuel for a 81km journey ,despite usual and crazy traffic from Ajah to Ladipo and back to Ajah using AC. Is my vehicle consuming fuel. Thanks |

Was it 81km or 81miles? Show us yr dashboard if you are not sure. If it's 81miles, which is same as 130km, then it's very okay. |

emy77: Well,I actually used Google map,which displayed 41KM from my place to Ladipo. |

how light are u on the throttle? get the car scanned, I'm sure u meant 81km to n fro not 81 miles tho cos I had to check weda ajah to ladipo is 81miles. were u overtaking all the cars? and sharp accelerations also use excessive fuel. get the vehicle scanned to be sure ur check engine light hasn't been artificially turned off. there is an alternative way to check if ur cel is ok, but that would require technical knowledge. how good r u with technical stuff? it's not normal, I r getting like 10mpg average as against 17-19mpg depending on ur v6 version |

smsglory:check engine light or DTC code can never be used as a determinant .Live data is what is needed.It will be difficult for me to make an opinion if I don't see live data. Come for 50% subsidized diagnoses at my workshop @ Gbagada on Monday. |
