Even got it down to 10.6 L Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/43910-fuel-consumption-merged-topic/page/144/#findComment-1472090 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fergos Member 53 Member For: 11y 21d Gender: Male Posted 22/06/14 08:13 AM Share Posted 22/06/14 08:13 AM I've found that if you've just bought a xr or Xrt and think its fuel consumption is a bit high given that u never really no how hard previous ppl drive it the best option take battery terminal off this will reset all trip setting fuel consumption etc put a full tank in and cruse around your averages sould go to were the car is quicker then having to wait for it to come down my Xrt gets 12 lt per hundred after dooming this.

Fergos Member 53 Member For: 11y 21d Gender: Male Posted 22/06/14 10:27 AM Share Posted 22/06/14 10:27 AM Because the dash trip reset only resets your trip meter not your average speed or your lph average. So if your average fuel is say 50 ks tripping reset on dash won't reset that only your trip meter will reset taking battery terminal of resets all your averages.

So if your average fuel is say 50 ks tripping reset on dash won't reset that only your trip meter will reset taking battery terminal of resets all your averages.You can reset the average speed and lph figures from the dash! I do it after every fill. Unless its just an FPV thing?You also realise that disconnecting and reconnecting the battery also has other bad implications around the computer re-learning mixtures and driving habits. Not something I'd be doing every tank or regularly.
