Got an all time record on the trip meter today when filled the car up. Left servo and trip meter flashed 800km. Now the highest I have ever got out of it was 752km.
When i fueled up i was doing highway driving and the average consumption on the trip computer was 8.8l/100km. Has anyone fueled up and got a reading higher than 800km on a full tank of gas? Cheers............ |

600 is about the absolute best from my BA and that's only if you really babyfoot it... with my usual driving it's more like 450k's to a tank.

Yeah they have a 68 litre tank in the ef/el series. I normally get about 500 km's around town. but it just loves it on the open road. Cruise control on about 115 to 120 and it uses 7.5 to 8 litres per 100 k's. Try getting a commodore to do that.

I was under the impression that Commodores like it or not got better fuel economy anyway? |
