i'm 80% highway/20%city.


Is there something wrong with my car ?

automatic
i rarely floor it. Drive it like a grandma most of the time.

 

whats your mpg... i have the 5spd and i am heavy footed and the lowest mpg i have seen was 22mpg

 

I get about the same as you. I floor it alot tho.

 

300 was my low which netted me 25 mpg mixed driving on 12 gallons

highway was 33 mpg and was 12 gallons as well 398 miles.

Car is a auto TC with under 1K mileage.

Normal driving with a few beatings since it is new.

 

so the tc is not an economical car

 

my auto got around 22-24at best. didnt drive that hard either. i dont know what it is. but i got a 5spd and my first tank was around 27mpg. now i average 25 because i dont drive as slow.

i dunno, id get your car checked out at the dealer.

 

yea i drive most hwy at arourd 80mph and i have some power mods and i still average at least 25mpg and get about 27 if i am all highway

 

the lowest i have gotten was 25 mpg, which is about 320 out of a full tank. 230 sounds really bad out of a full tank.

 

1) Are you on "D" or "3"?

2) What is your engine RPM at highway speeds?

3) If you are on "D", how fast are you driving?

 

Man,. thats abnormally low, go get ur car checked, I have a auto tC and the lowest i've had is around 22 and thats mostly city driving.

wow...i get 22-26mpg and im TURBOD!

 

holy crap, 230?? I've gotten 360 miles while doing 80mph with a bike on the roof. when you "only get 230 miles", how many gallons do you put in it when you fill it up? miles / gallons between fill ups = mpg.

 

360 was the most i ever got. and that was with some spirited driving.

 

I'm in the same boat, I've posted my problem on every damn gas related thread.

My best tank I believe was under 270, usually I get 220-230 a tank.

I've had my car for 2 years and 2 days now =P

 

i just hit my best at 270.

60% highway going around 65-70mph

40% city going around 30-40mph

i dont step on it much but since its summer here in south tx the a/c is on about 95% of that time?

another thing, dont we have a 14.5 gal tank? Im only getting 12.5 when i fill it up, and thats when the pump thing clicks, i stop when it does that.

 

we do have a 14.5 gallon tank, your not running your tank completely empty which is not a bad thing.

 

what grade do you guys use?

 

87

 

I average 330 and drive 80% freeway. Avg speed is 75 mph. Usually about 28 mpg or so.

 

That's pretty crazy. I have a 5 speed and i drive city most of the time and still get around 300 most of the time. I think my worst tank was around 260.
