You said it only did 10 km's and the fuel usage went up from 8 to 30l/100 and there's no way you'd use a 1/4 of a tank in only 10 km's...Is it Auto or Manual?

Launching from every red light and giving it heaps lol... but my average didn't go up that high?? When you reset your average and you fang it around, your average would read high because that's the only thing it seen since..If I was in your position, they would be paying for the whole bill, even if I went somewhere else to get the work done..

That's with a top speed of about 70.. Up a really friggin steep hill.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
