What does your reading on the litres per 100km dial read?

Petrol 4 door manual Rubi with 33's, steel bar and extra crap routinely gets 10.-10.5 sitting on the dollar. If I'm a total scrooge, can get into the 9's @ 90-95..........
As previously posted, add 1 ltr per 100 for aircon.

On 4dr 6sp CRD with 2.5" lift on 255/75R17's I get between 11-13L/100km on 40/50% town/highway. Dont think it would be hard to reach 15-16 if the slipper was sunk in. Both readout are similar.

thanks bigfoot bushy. can you tell me what the code or heading for it is. mine was donated to me by a mate who moved on to more complex stuff. it has normal readouts plus a heap of x-gauge stuff added in. my l/100 is a bit dicky , and i just take a rough guess off the fuel guage. would be interesting to see if scangauge gives same reading as dash. i had an idea they would both aceess information from the same source and give the same reading.

Ive just done 1500km on the car and its sitting around 10.2L/100, been city driving mainly last 500km. (Manual Diesel)

Curious as to why all these other diesels mentioned have such high consumption!

interesting. i can get that out of mine , but boy i sure have to drive quietly and take off slowly and use all efforts to save fuel. normal driving is more 11l /100 round town ,without using a lead foot. i think the ecu mapping in these things must vary a bit.

agreed david,i was expecting it to be around the 11-12 mark esp since its brand new!

illl do the good old way of filling the tank up and reseting my trip meter calculation that should give a pretty spot on figure.

Lift
winch bar and winch

My fuel consumtion increased with every change exept for the AEV snorkel that improved it slightly
