How many Litres does your jazz do per 100 km???

I checked mine and it's on 6.7

Sp00n
25-12-2004, 08:08 PM
depends on how i drive it
mine returns 6.7-7.0 if i drive like a granny
and about 7.7-8.2 if i drive like a maniac
it doesnt want to go past 8.2.....
maybe i'm not trying hard enuff

on my stock's VTi-S rims i can do 5.8-6.2lt/100.
on my 17" rims, i now do 6.4-6.7

those figures are somtimes hard to follow..
practically one full tank will allow me around 550kms, normally no more than tat..if get there, very lucky.
anyone find this the same? cause i think most jazz should do better than tat.
sad :(

460km is what i average from a full tank of fuel until the fuel light comes on......550km what is that driven till it's empty ????? or is that mostly highway driving

im dissapointed.. i always thought you guys could get 600. I dunno where i got that figure from but i always thought jazz could go 600.

how big is the jazz's tank?

cause i get around 460 on a full tank of synergy 8000 (tegs have 50lt)
which isnt too bad...
quite disappointed with you jazz boys hehe revving too hard aye...
unless its like a 30 lt tank then thats understandable...

STTICH
26-12-2004, 01:11 AM
a full tank is 42 lt form the manual.
i get 550 kms somtimes when really emtying the tank :) its like i fill up 40-41 lt
fuel light comes around 500kms.]
quite disappointed since jazz is so called the 'fuel saver' but turn out not true :(

42 lt . am very sure. u can check the jazz brochure.
its not unusual tat i fill around 38- 40lt since hav done it many times.
never tried fillinf up 42 lt though. :)

think u can still go a bit.

er, not too sure how u guys drive ur Jazz.

if possible, i try to keep it below 3K rpm. not too difficult once u get used to it.

i get 600kms EASILY. if the light comes on, you can still do another 50kms at the very LEAST.

the tank capacity is 42 ltr.

based on my car's computer, i averaged 6~6.3 when using the stock 14" on my Vti. after changing to Lenso 15"s, i'm getting around 6.5~6.7. but i'm still confident of hitting 600kms on a full tank.

i think the jazz has one of the better mileage for a car of its class. definitely better than say, Fiesta or Mazda2.

I agree there, are all you jaz owners hitting the 600km mark using just normal unleaded or Preimum ? i have just switched over to preimum recently yo see the difference and well it's an extra 10kms from normal but i'm only on my second tank so can't say for sure...:D but compared to my REX it's miles better and way better then the lancer 1.8 also.

Geoffy
27-12-2004, 04:22 PM
I'm using Optimax and about to switch to BP Ultimate cause after testing both I have concluded that BP gives you about 50kms more for your $...

I change gears at 2.5 RPM or lower... It's actually not that hard to get use to hehe... Only rev higher with FULL car of fat asses on a hill hahaha :rolleyes:

I've seen 3.9L/100km on the highway from my gf's Jazz...

The light according to the manual indicates that you have around 7l of fuel left

28-12-2004, 09:00 PM
so the jazz automatically calculates how many litres it uses every 100 km's after u drive it for a while?

MRFIT
28-12-2004, 10:27 PM
I've just came back from a 3 days trip, I've done 1200km all together..... the lowest I've seen is 5.7L/100km..... (first time).... but since I was cruising at about 130km/h, it shows about 6.5L/100km..... also because in rural areas, there is no BP Ultimate available, I've been adding Premium Unleaded......

but from day to day city driving, I've never went below 6.5L/100km, the light usually comes on about 500km mark...... 600km? I don't think I will ever achieve that.....

just on my first tank of premium just hit 500km's and got a bit more to go, big difference over unleaded i usually only get 460km's on unleaded only. Now i gotta wonder how BP Ultimate will go

wyl03
29-12-2004, 11:54 AM
on the dashboard, there's a trip computer that records distance per trip as well as mileage (in terms of L/100km). i'm not sure how the mileage is calculated though - whether it is a running average (and if so, calculated over how many kms or L??) or average for the whole trip.

the fuel tank has 42L.
so theoretically/mathematically speaking, if you get your mileage BELOW 7L/100km, you should get at least 600kms. (eg 6L/100km = approx 700kms)

7L/100km is the threshold (theoretically).

anything above 7 and your total distance per tank is below 600kms.

er, makes sense?

my eldest brother and i both have a jazz... i do normal city driving everyday occationally driving like a maniac and i get usually around 500 before the fuel light comes on, my brother drives highway everyday for about an hour there and an hour back he told me he got approx 650kms and when he filled up it had 5L still in it (we both use Vpower)... the figures honda tells us are true i guess its just a matter of how you drive it :) thats what i think anyway

17-06-2007, 10:15 AM
specify whether its manual or auto cos im sure the auto would use abit more. maybe thats why some are getting 460km/tank???

i get a fuel economy ranging for 5.7-6.5, car is running on 17's with BBK & turbo :) & i've checked the range i get out of a tank & done the maths the fuel economy checker isnt screwed up :)

21-06-2007, 11:05 AM
I got my fuel economy down to 5.6/100km. But that only happens after long trips. It slowly goes up as I do short trips to pick up people from nearby etc.

Love fuel consumption while cruising on the highway 8)

lol dude, are u running on 2nd gear on m5 or something?
I assume you're going to UNSW

Even with peak hr traffic, i only get 7.3 max.
But otherwise, 6.2 on average

My best record would be 5.2L with ultra granny driving. But it's really no point since it really inaccurate

My new jazz is throwing up really high consumption. I have ran 450km so far and my fuel tank is now empty. So it is actually using slightly more than 10L/100km! I can't see how I can get it down to 7L/100km...oh, and I am using BP Ultimate.

Fizz
12-07-2007, 02:12 PM
whats the best way to calculate the fuel consumption (L/100km) for a vehicle which doesnt have the trip computer?

i've been told to use this formula: litres filled into tank (ie. 39L) / mileage (ie. 450km) x 100 = 8.6

lol...is this the correct way?

Well, the computer on my Jazz was recording between 7L to 10L. But I did my own calculation. I pumped up full tank with BP Ultimate on my Jazz and took note of the mileage. Drove happily till yellow signal came up...drove for another 25km with yellow signal on and took my calculations from there. So I have clocked 450km since I last fuel and divide that by 42 litres (full cap for VTI Jazz) and I got my L/KM.

My Jazz when new was giving really bad mileage, until about 2,000KM on the odometer, but as it's aged, it's really settled down. A friend consistently gets 5.0L/100KM, I consistently get 5.5-5.7L/100KM, and have done the maths.

North Brisbane to Gold Coast return 5 times (1 return per day, approx 125KM in each direction, totalling 250KM) was giving me 5.2L/100KM, running at 110KHM, just over 3,000RPM

I estimated a 42L tank could potentially travel 800KM, but that would be absolutely running the trank dry (they're not THAT heavy to push, right?)

Two important factors :
1. an un-modded 1.3L iDSI motor
2. Standard grade 91RON unleaded fuel

Cheers,

Blip.

Friend of mine had a Jazz for about 2 years, and got about 6.0 to 6.5 L / 100km, doing mainly city driving ie lots of short trips in heavy traffic.

I get around 8L / 100km with my Integra.

During the 2007 Queensland Queen's birthday weekend my wife took a drive from Logan City (just south of Brisbane) to Noosa and achieved 4.8 litre per 100 km.

Normally however just around the city to and from work we only get 5.9 litre / 100km.

1.3 litre engine CVT no mods to body or mechanicals 5,000 km on clock.
Windows up for better aerodynamics and air conditioner on all the way.

6.1 for VTI is possible, 6.7 is when you sometimes wait within a jam (manual), word is said that with a VTIS it never reach as low as 6.1, maybe its slightly higher weight triggers it, but fuel efficiency of this car isnt a problem at all, 6.3 means you can drive for more than 600km with one tank of petrol, how exciting is that?! more importantly, you dont have to go with 95, that saves too.

Oh, and the computer's kinda stupid, the read of your first quarter tank or 1/3 would determine the read of the rest unless you got a long enough highway to go or jammed up really bad.

anyway the computer together with a lot of other features are nothing you would expect in a such small car, and they are just what to encourage you to pay more than you should, play with it, but dont really lay your faith with it, hehe.

I just run my tank down and refueled with Shell VPower last night. Hope it will somehow improve.

I've done a series of high octane fuel tests with my 1.3L engine, minimum of three full tanks to ensure all the old 91 ron is flushed out, and run 98 ron premium shell fuel

From what I could see, made virtually NO difference in either performance, or actual mileage distance.

Previous car (Commodore) got a marked improvement on distance, but not in performance. I think the 1.5L Vtec motor may get a better result, given it's tuned to give higher perfromance.

Next thing i'm going to try is three tanks of 10% ethanol blend, so see what difference it makes on mileage, my bet is.....not much

I noticed when I put a drop in K&N panel filter I got a lot more distance out of my car (avg 50km). Its re-usable so u wont need to change it ever again, Which is a fair bit of saving in the long run IMO. Not a bad investment of $100.

Just joined up today ( see my intro on main page ) and have only had my factory standard 2005 VTI-S CVT for 2 days but on highway cycle on the 270 KM one way trip home when I picked it up it was returning 5.5 litres per 100 k's along variable straight and mountainous terrain.

Wasn't driving at Granny speed but not on leadfoot speed either.Happy with that sort of economy if it keeps around that figure.

Getting 6.7 around town but thats with a couple of minutes warm up time as well ( I like to warm up my cars before driving off )

for my usual driving, mix of highway and local roads, it usually end up with 6.3/100km, kms I usually get from a full tank is around 550, but I've reached 630 couple times, especially just after service, oh, and also, I'm using Shell's E10

07-01-2008, 12:35 PM
just wondering figure your all are quoting from trip computer or did you go with ODO and calculated?

some people say that trip computer 6.6L/100 is not correct, and it varies a lot with your current driving sitution.

07-01-2008, 09:29 PM
Around Brisbane, down the Gold Coast and out past Ipswich I get about 6.2L/100km
The most I did was about 500km before the light came on then another 20km around before I found another BP to get Ultimate which is the only fuel put in this since I got it.
I have the manual version.

4thGenExi
10-01-2008, 08:24 PM
Yeah I have a manual VTi. It really senses what type of driving you're doing. If you dolly it and not rev above 2500rpm it will sit between 5.9 and 6.1L per 100km with ease.

Best fuel consumption - 650km of pure hwy driving sitting on 110km/h the whole time. Got it down to 5.3L per 100km. From memory the fuel light only came on just over the 600km mark.

Worst would be about 7.2L per 100km and barely scraped 500km out of a tank but that was after 5 days of traffic jams to and from work.

The car has about 5000km on it now, is it true that once you put a few km on these motors they drink less fuel?

29-03-2008, 09:41 AM
New guy in the forum and I currently own a VTi-S manual.

Fuel economy seems to always be hovering around the 7.0l/100 mark if used for city driving (Sydney's traffic is no good).

It improves to around 6.3-6.5 when combined with highway driving (I used to drive back and forth the M5) with 30% highway 70% city.

I drive conservatively (read: turtle's pace) most of the time.

I'm still yet to check based on kms and litres to refill, but based on the trip computer we seem to be averaging 6.0L/100kms with city driving for a 2003 Vti manual with 60,000kms on the clock.

When we first got it I refilled and reset trip. I then drove to work 2 days in a row as economically as I could and managed to average 5.5L/100kms for city driving :)

Not sure how accurate the trip computer is vs recording number of kms travelled and litres to refil.

lol how do u guys get so high? i get average of about 6.3-6.5 with mixed highway and city driving.

btw vtec is engaged at between 2800 and 3400 rpm if i recall correctly, although it isnt really "vtec" since all it basically does is open an extra intake valve. ie 16 valves are used in "vtec" mode rather then 12 valves

I keep a rigid log of my fuel consumption 2003 vti auto.
The fuel tank is under the front seat and holds 42 litres. The filler pipe from the rear holds 3 litres, so if you fill to the neck of the fuel cap the total is 45 litres.
Fuel consumption varies with driving style, air con on/off and heat of the day.
My best city mileage is 6.5lt/100. No aircon, little ol'lady style
My worst is 7.1/100 with aircon on, normal drive in traffic. All on 92RON fuel. Tried 96RON little change. On 98RON 6.3lt/100, but BP is the only petrol guaranteed to be 98 and is usually more expensive.
Country cruising 5.2lt/100km ave speed 100km/hr.
My overall average is 6.75lt/100km.
I run Nulon full synthetic oil

reset your tripmeter, and do 100kms whilst driving in D and try not to exceed 4000rpm, when accelerating let it climb to about 2000rpm. and cruising should be abt 1500ish at 70lm/h your end figure should be about 6l/100, if not then something is off.

yes, I was going by the trip computer.

There's definately an issue if you're really using 8.8 l/100km. Even 7.8 l/100km is excessive, unless you drive like you're on a race track or in heavily congested traffic for nearly all of your driving.

How many km's do you get out of a tank? You should be getting 600 but you would be getting <450 if you're using 8.8 l/100km.

First thing to do before you atempt to troubleshoot is to check the accuracy of your trip computer. They can be inaccurate depending on the type of fuel you're using. After filling the tank to the top, reset your trip computer. After travelling a few hundred kms refill the tank again to the top and record the number of litres used (on the bowser), the trip distance travelled and the trip computer l/100km. Real L/100km is then worked out by the following calculation:

LITRES divided by KILOMETRES multiplied by 100 = l/100km

Compare this to what your trip computer says to determine if your trip computer is accurate. If you get roughly the same answer as your trip computer you should then start troubleshooting your high fuel consumption issue.

red_s2000
15-07-2012, 12:27 AM
yeah, my friend's VTI-S manual gets around 6.6 and he drives like he is on a racetrack. I initally blamed my high consumption to Auto and lots of city traffic driving, but still 8.8 is very high. I will reset the computer, follow the driving technique as suggested by GU357, then refill the tank and check to to see if my computer is accurate. Will report back...

GU357

also i run on 98 always (debatable whether or not its any good), and when u reset the trip meter dont be scared by the initial figures the computer gives out, mine will say things like 20l/100 until i actually get some distance into the trip comp the thing is useless, and will give back poor averages.

red_s2000
31-07-2012, 11:34 PM
Ok, I have filled up the tank twice now and did the manual calculation. Both times I got 7.8l/100km, whereas the computer read 8.8l/100km (i reset it after the first refill). Is there a way to adjust the computer?

GU357
01-08-2012, 03:25 AM
disconnect the negative battery terminal for abt 5 mins, put it back on turn the key till the clock turns on if the time is reset the ECU should be too, it will then recailbrate.

also u will notice the auto windows dont work. push the switch all the way down (2 clicks down) and hold it the window will continue down then when the window is down still hold the switch for 10 more seconds then bring it all the way up with the switch at the 2nd click up position. until the window has been all the way up for 10seconds then let go of the switch.

mine's (VTI-S GE Auto) roughly around the 400km mark per full tank (around 35-38L) = 8L/100km. Not really that great.

15-08-2012, 10:29 PM
hmm, most ppl dont use accelerators properly on auto cars, which is why the CVT was great because it would adjust the gears for u without changing the rpm.

most ppl plant the accelerator then reach their speed and take their foot off.

bad for the fuel pump.
the less fuel in the tank the higher the consistency of dirt and foreign objects now ur pump has to push more sludgey fuel around through the filter, always best to keep over 30% in the tank.

Currently clocking on average 7.0L/100km with my 2011 1.3L Gli. To be honest quite disappointed with the fuel economy, I was expecting better with a small sized car. Admitted I have to drive on hilly roads everyday to work so I'd imagine that affects the fuel efficiency but I normally manage to get by 1.5 weeks on full tank with ~40km drive return trip daily.

Do you drive in alot of start stop traffic
City driving under 60km/h?
Do you rev out to 4.5k regularly?
Are you basing fuel economy off the computer or litres used by how many kms you travelled?
My 1.3l Jazz Vibe regularly gets 5.5L/100kms, cuz i do alot of hwy/fwy driving
Estimated if i push it i can get 800kms out of the tank

Pretty much driving out in the burbs at 60-80km/h most of the time, plus start stop traffic at the lights. I think the uphill drive is the biggest killer, really need to push hard on the accelerator to get the car moving.

Computer says 6.8-6.9L but I've calculated it based on the odometer/kms travelled. Whenever I fill up a full tank the computer says 600+kms but I rarely ever get that.

Only time I've managed to get it down to 5.8L was freeway driving.

B P Australia changed the standard fuel from 93 to 91. I noticed an immediate increase in my fuel consumption. My son was working at BP at the time and confirmed the change. I have tried the 95 and the 98 octane and the 98 gave the better economy. The 95 made little difference and was a waste of money. However, the cost per km was not worth the change, so I satyed with the 91 octane.

For the air filter, i replaced at the 100K mark, only found one in inside the intake box. That sits on top of the gearbox, in front of battery?

I think the fuel filter under the handbrake is where the fuel tank is located. Was designed for for superior handling

Just checked again, THE TANK IS UNDER HANDBRAKE COVER. No more smoking in the jazz now. I thought they wouldve put the tank in the back and ran lines underneath.

Yeah they put the tank in the middle for handling purposes and to get that awesome boot space that the jazz has been renowned for

I filled with a tank of 98 yesterday and see if that helps the economy at all.
I had it serviced last week and it's a little better but still not great.

anyone still reading this, i chucked 91 in my jazz vibe s auto for the first time ever, and my average consumption around town dropped 1lt to currently 8.1. also, no noticeable power loss and no pinging or anything. My other cars have had noticeable power loss or pinging with 91/95

ON TOPIC: I got improved fuel economy with 91 shell, over 98 BP by over 10%.
I then tried 91 BP and got 10% worse than 98.... Its been like 8 years at BP but i need to change petrol stations now. 9.6Lts around town is rediculous

I have stock rims and standard Tyers recommended by Bob Jane tmarts for my size car and I get about 700kms per tank 4.7l/100km to 5.5 depending on how much highway driving but thanks to Costco a full tank costs me 30 bucks! From when fuel light comes on. 2006 auto.

Yea im not saying go buy a smallar set.

BTW your rim size in the GD can vary from 13in steelies to 15in alloys depending on year/model.

I have noticed a performance drop in acceleration and slight fuel consumption coming up from the 13in steelies wrapped in P1 to the VTis 15in alloy wrapped in RE003s. Both OEM rims and Tyre size.

Mine is a VTi 01 model. 1.5L

2001 GD3 CVT, its gone back up to 6-7Lish per 100KM. Filling up BP98 these days. That 5.8L was with 13inch steelies, 98 and freshly serviced with all new filters + fluids + Coil packs.
Shes getting old and I've given up looking after her meticulously. @ about 160KM ish and being 15 years old now there are signs from bushings etc of wear, chassis getting bit noisy.
But I've put that Jazz thru hell lmao. Still living.

Hi guys, back with a Honda after few years with Toyota :)

I got a 2013 1.3 Jazz GE ("Vibe") auto. Normally it does 7.1 indicated around town and 6.8 in the countries.

This week I fitted a Pivot 3-drive and drove from Melbourne to Wilsons Prom-Inverloch and it returned 5.7 indicated (6.12 real measured during fill-up). During the long drive I saw 5.5 indicated on the dashboard at times.

The throttle controller makes it very easy/intuitive to drive in econo mode. And no, I'm not a hypermiler and drive quite spirited-ly :wave:

Is the pivot 3-drive hard to install?
Where to buy

zx6r.j1
30-09-2016, 11:42 AM
Very easy. Plug and play, about 30min. First I bought from ebay ($150 shipped) but was fake I think. It works, just can't save the mode and need to select everytime I started the car.

I then contacted Pivot Japan directly and they suggested this official Rakuten shop ($175+shipping). Works perfectly. The wiring harness is "7A" for my GE

And yet another big drive ... Heaps of fun on the fast dirt road with Traction Control :thumbsup:

Melbourne - Cann River - Canberra (713km, 10hrs)

About 50km of dirt and gravel road, used manual shifter
EC4 setting on Pivot 3-drive Throttle Controller
1,762km / 119.39L / $134.32
= 14.75 km/L
= 6.78L / 100km (dashboard indicated 6.3L/km)
= $7.62 / 100km

Those are absolutely cheap way to get around. By plane the total amount would only give me a one-way taxi trip to the airport!

I wanna drive to Ayers Rock !! :cool:

I dont see a need for drive selection in a jazz. It barely makes any power to begin with. It barely drinks enough fuel to end with.

If your doing them long distance. Im sure the new models have cruise control. Set the bitch on 110 and cruise away knowing the ecu will be only using little fuel as possible.

Controlling throttle responsiveness is important in a daily drive which has the ability to empty its 50L tank in less than 180Kms.
