Got mine down from 19l/100 to 17 the other day.

Maybe my driving is getting a bit more economical. bliss.gif

Can get it to 10 on a decent run but it's always more fun when it's closer to 20

Manual 06 BF xr6T ----> 19L/100KM minimum(no hwy driving)

Seems a lot higher than everyone else.. any one know possible reasons why? It's stock.

Apart from driving it hard - slowed it down last week and still getting 19L :(

im getting bout 13.6-14.0L / 100km, but I get about 420km a tank. How many km I really get, well, who knows, bout 300~. that's without boosting over 5psi.

How long are your drives. Does the car get to warm up properly for a long length of the trip or is it cold start and trip till it just gets warm then off again. Cause that would make the consumption kinda high.

I had about 13-14's when my commute was 10 minutes through Fremantle traffic in the mornings - this is through the auto, shifted manually as early as it would let me.

Must be driving style or maybe a faulty sensor (O2?) like some have said

Mmm yeah during the week only drive to and from the tram stop which is about 10 mins away, it does seem to go up quite a bit during the week like 0.3L each trip. Surely it can't make that much of a difference can it?

Watch your instant fuel consumption figure as you take off from the lights normally. It'll be up in 40+ unless you baby it a lot. If you take off quickly it'll probably hit 60's or more! I know it hits 99.9 without much trouble stock when you floor it. Wonder what the number would be if we had a third major digit?
