My first tank i got 30.5 US mpg w/ mostly city and normal driving. Btw i dont know if its been posted, but http://scangauge.com.
It shows stuff like instant MPG, average MPG, throttle position, battery volts, coolant temp, air intake temp and a couple of more readings.

Its out of stock for now, they say it'll be in may of 06, cant wait to get it, i miss the mpg gauge from my olds aurora 4.0, but anything is better than 16.5 mpg.

Also maybe make scangauge.com a sticky?

here is a good converter"http://www.onlineconversion.com/fuel_consumption.htm

And a good calculator:

US MPG is easy to do, so I don't think a calculator is necessary.

What mileage do you have on your car Nick? I have not even come close to that yet.

El Jefe · 05-09-2006, 01:01 AM

i would post up what my mileage is..but i havent even had to fill up yet! maybe in a few days.
btw how much gas does everyone put in on average? like if it's on the last bar? since it's 11.1 gal tank im guessing 9-10gals on a fill up?

why? · 05-09-2006, 06:49 PM

We'll see, I'm with you. I've driven 190 miles so far.

I have about 8200km on my car. I got the oil changed at just over 7000km for the first time, and I check my tire pressure once a week with an expensive digital gauge, making certain the air is always exactly 2.2 BAR. I fill up exclusively at Shell and Co-op stations using 87 octane and my Mastercard, always down/upshift into 2nd gear when turning corners, and I always listen to 100.7FM radio.

If you do the same, you will get the same mileage.

LMAO, that's what's wrong, I don't listen to 100.7.

For those who're getting >= decent mileage:
would you mind adding your $0.02 to the thread on Breaking in a new Yaris?

I should be getting mine next week & as it's my 1st new car I'm reading up on best "breaking" habits.

El Jefe · 05-10-2006, 01:19 AM

well i filled up today at 294miles, with 9.9gals = 29.7mpg! sweet and it'll only get better untill it fully breaks in

JaiTomato · 05-12-2006, 02:39 AM

Just bought a sedan a few days ago. So far I have 350 miles and tank is still half.

Ziv · 05-12-2006, 10:05 AM

Update, half a tank or so,

306 clicks / 23.5 Litre = 7.68 Liters/100clicks.

Mostly city. probably 90/10 city/hwy.

Could Air/Con be that much of a factor? I had it all almost all the time since it's quite hot lately.

If you Google Victoria, BC you'll see that we even have palm tree's, the "Great White North" is a misnomer used by people that have never been to southern BC.
P.S. 99% of us don't speak french either.
