My Toyota Avalon by J0hnTrevolt(m): 6:40am On Feb 12, 2017 |
Please help oo I hav a toyota avalon 2002 model XLS as this is my first ride. I think it consumes a lot of fuel tho im not sure. From my house to my office reads 19kilometer or miles and on a weekly basis I buy 2k fuel on Monday n by Friday it shows red. I do not drive around just house to office. Secobdly I notice dat wen I turn d ignition on n off d fuel keep going down. Sometimes wen im driving I choose not to off d ignition cos I notice if I off it n on it again d fuel will really go down but if I dnt the fuel remains where it is. Sometimes Short distance will consume d fuel. iv asked a mechanic to check it for me and he says nothing is wrong with my vehicle. Plz help me guys as I feel the car is putting a whole in my pocket. Tnx Cc: Gazzuzz, ikenna351, everybody |

J0hnTrevolt: 20min per day Times 5 is 100 mins That's like from Lagos to oyo town on a 2k fuel My illustration is vague,cos driving pattern and co will come into effect if u r travelling, but mehn,if that fuel consumption is still much for u,u myt need to buy okada to supplement it o.that one,na 500 naira fuel per week o Honestly,while u shld do the calculation the way gazzuzz asks u to,I doubt if ur MZ-FE V6 engine is consuming fuel U cant compare ur personal car and public transport as the comfort u get with driving ur own car is what u r paying for 11 Likes |

The impression i have is that your car must be the most fuel efficient Avalon i've ever heard. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Sorry to ask but is that car not a v6? |
Re: My Toyota Avalon by Kjnwancaro: 11:07pm On Jun 22, 2018 |
Nothing wrong with your car. 4K bill per month on gas is kind of very cheap. Forget 10mins home-office drive, it would still be around that price even if the distance was double. 1 Like |

13 litres for 95km. That's about 18mpg city. Absolutely nothing unexpected about that. |

J0hnTrevolt: JohnTrevolt If this fuel consumption is a problem which in my opinion is very okay, replace your Avalon with the bland 03 corolla |

Readonee35L:u have just turned it upside down to suit u. Unleaded fuel is recommended. They went further to say leaded fuel may cause knocking and reduced performance. 1 Like |
