service.

you do realise that once the light comes on you still have like 40km left in the tank...

I get about 400km out of a tank in my R and that was all city driving.

[Max Power]

Usually get about 550kms out of mine...

Lift off on the right foot a bit

[omgitsmatt]

man ur lucky i only get 260 max

[Dr.k20z1]

260 whatttttt!.. thats crazy

anyways the car just got serviced cos i just bought it not too long ago.. so mm.. how much do u guys normally get having everything all stock?

[Q_ball]

I say ur jst a bit throttle happy.
You dont need to be "thrashing" it per say to be using an excessively high amount of fuel.

[Dr.k20z1]

catch is, in that time i only took it hard twice? why is everyone assuming i took it hard the whole time?

anyways so i floored it twice and my fuel is like that? is that normal?

[Shraka]

You guys should really figure out your l/100km ratio. So much more accurate than how much you get out of a tank. People fill up at different times, to hard to compare.

My VTiR gets 10L/100km average. 6.5L/100km if I spend some time on a freeway.

my fuel light came on today at 490kms, so theres something going on on your car - eventhough mine is a dc5 lux, not an S, fuel tank size should be the same. Few squirts as well. maybe you're a leadfoot

i think the fuel tank is probably 50L or so. I filled up 43L tonite

trueee damn aye.. monk3y is urs a manual? is it cos i dont use 6th much? only on highways? leadfoot whats THAT haha
