My other car is a 2.8t Patrol though so this does get a bit of a squirt, even from the Minister for War and Finance, she secretly enjoys the power.

Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 2m 19d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 06/09/11 02:53 AM Share Posted 06/09/11 02:53 AM Recently went on a holiday in a bog stock FG Xr6T ute.. But I was curious.. So I know this is a hard test because I couldn't relly do it over identical stretches of road but I was comparing with cruise set at 105km/h in 6th (where possible) the difference between traction control being on and off.. The roads seemed fairly even as far as undulating terrains go..Traction on: 9.4L/100km over 300km with a 97km/h average speedTraction off: 8.5L/100km over 300km with a 95km/h average speedThe results were fairly different so I'm wondering if anyone else has ever noticed this?I was just curious because a mate of mine went through a set of brake pads on the rear of his VE SS in 12,000km's and they blamed the DSC..-B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know mine can use less going to a place than coming back because of going up hill more. Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhaojun_xr6t Member 7 Member For: 13y 3m 22d Posted 14/09/11 04:49 AM Share Posted 14/09/11 04:49 AM hi mate, I think you might have the same problem as I had. im also drive my xr6t mainly around city no highway. I just drive normally, no heavy foot. but my computer reading is 18.6L/100km. I dont know whats wrong. and last time I dropped it for service, I was told something wrong with my gearbox .....they told me something like the last gear cant lock up or what, anyway I dont know much about gear box. anyway, I think I might have a gearbox check sometime.it shouldnt drink so much fuel ...
