lomomike: Reporting for class. A lot comes to play when MPG is factored. Some are already listed by inze. Some others include, * Wrong oil grade/spec. * Tyre types, thread pattern, sizes, and tyre cold air pressure. * Imposed mass (extra loads on car). * State of air filter * O[size=5pt]2[/size] sensors, sparkplugs, cooling systems and catalytic converters state * Temperature and pressure of air in the surrounding. Etc I recently scanned my Rav4 2004 toyota which has Check engine Light and it read P0037 oxygen sensor bank 02 , please how much will it cost to fix and what are the dangers of having it. my car has been gulping a lot of fuel.

jkingx: if your car use 1 litre to go 4.7km it will use x litres to go 100km therefore 1*100=4.7*x x litres = 100/4.7 =21.3 so your mileage in L/100KM = 21.3L/100KM Thanks, I don't know this maths from school days, I think I know it now. Thanks |

earthrealm: mpg = miles per gallon a us gallon is about 3.8liters, but for ease in calculation you can assume its for 4liters 58/3.8 = 15.3gallons . now you drove 170miles , so 170miles/15.3gallons= 11.1mpg. the petrol station you bought the petrol might have inaccurate dispensing meter as the rav fuel tank is only 14.8gal /55 liters when fully empty
the rav4 is good condition does about 25 to 30mpg on the highway . so a full tank is expecetdd to take u in excess of 320miles so you need to confirm if the 170 miles you drove are highway miles.
and yes a leaking exhaust consumes more fuel I buy from NNPC mega station here in Enugu. I usually buy 57 to 58 litres of fuel with low tank indication. I mostly drive the car in town (in city). But please can you calculate it based on kilometer and teach me how. What can i do to get better fuel economy as I serviced my car for the first time with AP visco 2000 of oil weight 20w50 , couldn't see the oil specification of 5w30 around. Maybe my exhaust pipe is open. |

inze: --170mi = 273km approx. -- 273km/58litres = 4.7km/L approx l OK. That means in 4.7km it consumes 1litre. Assuming if it is driven for 100km, what will be the consumption? Thanks |
Car Talk › Re: How To Calculate Real Time MPG Of A Car by Experience4u(op): 12:28am On Apr 18, 2015 |
jkingx: Since you want the mileage in mpg, you have to convert the 58 litres to gallons and divide the miles traveled by that. 58 litres = 15.3 US gallons mileage (mpg) = distance in miles /volume of fuel in gallons mpg=170/15.3 mpg=11.1 in other words, your mileage is approximately 11mpg OK. How so I calculate it based on L/100km using 170miles driven on 58litre tank. My car reads miles I want to know what it consumes. Thanks |
