Good afternoon chief
Please I have a question about my 2018 rav4 xle. I filled The Fuel tank which is about 60L in size, from my calculation it ran about 200miles when the fuel got exhausted. So here's my question, is the fuel consumption normal or is it too high?
Note : My AC is on 85% of the time and the fuel guage isn't functioning properly

incomplete info.

Where you on the highway or inside Lagos traffic.

But for better understanding Lagos to benin is 300km.

You covered 200miles (340km) without emptying the remaining 10liter reserve. So 50litres covered 340km.

Complete the information so we can analyse

I drove around Benin city's axis for about 70miles then highway about 130 miles. My car stopped running before I refuelled hence my 200miles calculation. I kept keg of 10L in my boot for refuelling.

camry security is not touch sensitive. It will only blare an alarm when opened without authorisation if armed.

Good day guys,

I just noticed my Honda City starts to squeak whenever I accelerate. As soon as I take my leg off the accelerator, it stops. Please, any idea what it might be and possible solution. I will really appreciate it. Thanks.

As per your very rough calculation, fuel mileage is 12.6mpg compared to 23mpg you're supposed to get if your car is performing optimally. It is bad.

@ GAZZUZZ

disconnect the compressor fuse.

Does it disengage?

Next try the compressor relay.

It's easy to ask and beg now, but once you gets it, everyday na excuse; from excuse to trouble, and then threats of death. I can never give anybody anything on hire purchase. It's a quiet way of looking for trouble. Nigerians don't worth it.

I understand you sir. But atleast you haven't tried me. We cant all be the same. If I vow to be different, you may think I am only saying it because I may be desperate. But truth we can not all be terrible people in Nigeria. I appreciate your response sir. God bless. I will be glad if you respond to this too sir

My engine started shorting oil and smoking badly when raised.

Gurus in the house. While driving I noticed my 08 mdx AC suddenly stopped cooling but the rear vents still blow very cold air, also the trafficator stopped working but if you press the hazard it works, also the central lock stopped working doesn't matter if you try with the remote of physically press the door central lock, also the Tpms(tire pressure monitoring system) doesn't work anymore. All these happened at the same time. there is no error on the instrument cluster apart from the Tpms.The engine drives and runs smoothly. I have checked all the fuse and they are all working. Anyone know what the issue might be?
