| Kia Sportage Fuel Consumption. by wickyyolo(op): 8:03am On Sep 16, 2018 |
Please somebody should help me. I don't seem to Understand my Kia , the fuel consumption is very high. If I refuel 3k it can only take me for a day with small run around. While my Corolla , with 3k it can last me for a week. I tried changing the bearing, silencer, carburetor etc but still the fuel consumption is high. I'm still a small boy to be wasting money. Somebody Help me identify the problem Please |

wickyyolo:the problem with your vehicle is mindset. how can you expect same fuel usage of a 1.8L 1150kg vehicle to be same with a 2.0L 1450kg vehicle. also your vehicle must not be in top condition because I think you have very little knowledge about cars. take your kia for a scan and solve issues with code generated. check your tyre size and pressure, ensure your exhaust isn't leaking etc |

Scan your car. A Sportage is an SUV with higher engine capacity. The error message will actually throw more light on what is actually wrong with the car. |

wickyyolo:Your reply is not encouraging. The two questions i asked has nothing to do with you knowing about cars or being a mechanic. I will ask again What year is this vehicle And you should also snap a picture of your engine because you claimed to have a carburetor. |

There are a lot that will not throw a code. In such cases (which this most likely belongs to) the live data is critical. OP, look for an experienced tech for diagnosis. |
