Sounds pretty normal to me. From what I have gathered, people are getting on average between 400-500km per tank. That's metro and highway driving (probably 50/50). I get 450km/tank metro driving (really parking lot freeway driving and a bit of metro).

what size tyres do you run and how much air do you have in them, it makes a huge difference, also i dont see the point in complaining about petrol when youv gone and put a cam in it and its a 4.0l lol

imo the thing u have to remeber is you have a 4l not a 4cyclynder so if you are driving around town its gonna chew your fuel if your on the highway u average 8l/100 to 10/100 around town its more like 15-16/100 well according to my trip computer anyway it may be worth while installing a trip computer into your car so you can keep an eye on ur economy and see how much your using
