daf62757 · 02-23-2009, 11:13 PM

I am planning on switching my OEM spark plugs and putting in some Bosch plugs...some quad platium plugs that are supposed to get a few extra MPG. My dream is to get 50 MPH....and drive 70MPH. I CAN DREAM CAN'T I?

I was getting 44mpg with conventional oil. I've switched to synthetic in the same weight and now I'm getting 40mpg. Go figure. But right when I made this switch a week ago the weather turned cold again and we lost about 20 degrees on our daily highs-I'm hoping that's the reason.

Synthetic is the best way to go. I can tell you with certainty, the Yaris didn't come from the factory with Castrol in them. Make the switch to synthetic, best thing you can do for the life of the car.

YAR1S · 03-08-2009, 07:09 PM

Yeah, i do full sythetic...hope it works in the long run, I plan on having this car for quite some time.

I was getting crappy gas mileage through the winter as it was all city driving,went for a four hour highway drive yesterday and got the Scangauge reading 42mpg

Thursday i'm off to Florida and i'll get to see how good it can get with a fresh synth oil change and some warm weather for a change,and full to empty all highway.

wow i am only getting 320 miles per tank. Not sure if this is normal.

alch3miss · 03-27-2009, 09:51 PM

My last blinking light was at 480 miles.. I still have the picture.. one day I wanna ride out on a road trip with a gas can.. and max it out..320 is not normal unless your peeling out every 6 seconds..and doing crazy city mileage.
