Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Sirchiboy: 8:34pm On Feb 18 |
bought fuel of 10k at 675 and reset my odometer to 0 and after the journey. The 10k fuel only finished at 69 miles |
Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Ravenna: 9:01pm On Feb 18 |
10k fuel is like 15lts. You used 15 lts of fuel for 110km and you're complaining?! Hehehehe.. You believed those liars that said a Corolla can go 100km with 1Lts of PMS abi? i.e Lagos- Ibadan. There's no anomaly there, the car runs just fine. Maybe you used AC throughout tho also depends on your driving techniques. Anyways, Welcome to reality. My Honda Accord DC will do same 15lts from Lagos to Ibadan on a speed of 120km/ph. 3 Likes |

Sirchiboy: What are you expecting? Don't forget 10k fuel is like 15 litres o. You fuel economy is normal |
Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Dozieson(m): 9:22pm On Feb 18 |
Sirchiboy: It depends on city or highway driving. Corolla 2003-2008 can do 150km with the 15ltrs. Can do more kilometers on highway with same fuel Is there a check engine light in your car? Pls scan |

Sirchiboy:Your fuel consumption is very high abeg. I use a 2003 2.4L Camry and I get 80miles with 10k of 685/L |

Sirchiboy:3things could be the reason here; 1 The station u bought fuel from might have tampered with their metre 2: U might have run on AC all through the journey 3: Your style of driving ( maybe aggressive or high speed driving) However, 69miles for 14.8-15L of fuel is very economical if i may say |
Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Dozieson(m): 5:16am On Feb 20 |
Anguldi: Your Camry is consuming fuel. You should be getting close to 90/91 miles with 15l |
Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Dozieson(m): 5:18am On Feb 20 |
chccho: The engine is 1.8 liters o. This is on the high side |
Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Anguldi(m): 7:14am On Feb 20 |
Dozieson:Thanks 🙏, city driving though |
Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Dozieson(m): 7:33am On Feb 20 |
Anguldi: Okay. Maybe 75-80 miles |
Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by chccho(m): 8:23am On Feb 20 |
Dozieson:If u read my post again u will understand my point of view. OP Also your Catalyst (Indomie) fuel pump and injector should be checked |

Sirchiboy:Don't be tempted to go and spoil your car, your fuel economy is normal, if its an highway driving it would be better than that. 1 Like |

Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Dozieson(m): 6:29am On Feb 22 |
amosfunmi: It is not normal. Let him scan and share codes here. You will see the cause |
Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Bullfallo(m): 3:41pm On Feb 24 |
It’s not normal of first buy injector cleaner for your tank. Next observed all the spark plug that are not firing well. Next is to observe the coils, air filter, MAF sensor and 02 sensor. But fit scan the car. |
Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Sirchiboy: 8:59pm On Feb 25 |
Bullfallo:. Scanned it They cleared the error. Changed the four plug. Removed 02 sensor to test it and it was ok. Still consuming fuel |
Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Dozieson(m): 9:31pm On Feb 25 |
Sirchiboy: Share the scan codes with us here so we can explain the issues |
Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Bullfallo(m): 10:26pm On Feb 25 |
Sirchiboy:its not a matter of changing the plug. Merely looking at the plug a good mechanic will know if they are firing well or not. If they are not firing well, how many of them are not firing well? Then next is why? If they are firing well then you need to check the type oil you are using. 20w50 will or old oil will consume more fuel very much than 5w30 and new oil |
Re: Corrolla 2011 S Fuel Problem by Sirchiboy: 7:32am On Feb 26 |
Bullfallo: I use visco 2000 |

Sirchiboy: possible cause; read through the links https://www.toyotanation.com/threads/2002-highlander-limited-v6-3-0l-p1135-code.1730366/ https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/need-help-with-code-p1135.716437/ 1. Visit #2 to the dealer. This time they put the shop foreman on the job (very experienced guy they said ). The problem was a ground wire attached to the intake manifold. Problem fixed, no CEL light for a week. No additional charge from the dealer. ground wire as stated above 2. Faulty oxygen sensors or its harness/wire. Try and replace if need be to see if there will be improvement 3. You could use an original fuel cleaner to improve the situation. Buy the one in metallic container you have to be patient while going through these steps one after the other again, check if your exhaust in leaking. Catalyst has been removed 1 Like |
