Hymee,

the refill required 48.8 litres to fill from the orange light. The same filling method was used to fill the car before the trip - so this is quite accurate.

mrad01,

There was no question of your accuracy. Just interested to see how early the light comes on. I must be a thrill-seeker cause I usually fill up and it takes 57 litres. My best effort was when I ran out 200m up the road of the servo, and I rolled in. Worst bit was I had to brake at the end - I could have run out a few metres earlier LOL! (It was a 60 zone, and I had just taken off from a set of lights)

So basically your light comes on with 12 litres left - about 100km on the light. That is good going. 11.5 l/100km.

Cheers,
Hymee.

i managed to fill up 57 litres into the tank... meaning i had 4 at max left in the tank. drove for about an hour and abit with fuel light on. and my speedo was at 352.7....

and this according to my dealer is with the lastest flash available (they wouldnt or was unable to specify which flash it had on). not quite happy with with 16l/100. i don't drive conservatively, but i don't drive aggresively. of course i'd take off faster than the other cars if i'm first in line, but i always use the highest gear possible. e.g. 6th gear on 70km.

is my milege normal?

After the G flash, I got 10.2L/100km on mixed city driving and a trip from BNE to Noosa and return through the hinterland. I reckon it given me an extra 0.5L/100km, more or less in line with Hymee's experience.

Good objective post Labrat. I reckon that is about right. I can consistently get close to, or better than, 500km from a tank with my normal weekly driving, since the G.

Cheers,
Hymee.

90% of the time, i change gears at less than 3500 rpm. only on roads with 100km speed limit and with no or minor traffic that i use 5500rpm+. of course, with exceptions, at times (not very often) i'd go from 1st gear to 4th gear on 60km roads or 1st/2nd then 6th gear on 80 roads, but that happens extremely rarely.

i admit that if i have friends on board, or is driving alongside a friend, i'd trash the hell out of the car. however, that tank did not consist of such driving. (first tank = show off tank. got me 295km's). i was talking about my second tank which i tried to be more conservative, rarely using 5500+. and getting 16l/100km with it is quite disappointing.

i've fueled up twice now in less than 9 days (been driving more than usual)
