timifakay: lol. did a quick google distance estimate search for my commute. Agidingbi to Yaba = 9.4 Miles my Yaba to Island commute daily is 21.5 Miles. 21.5 x 4 days = 86 Miles Yaba to Ogba (College Road) = 14.2 Miles Ogba to Magodo = 11 Miles Yaba to Ladipo = 5.6 Miles Magodo to Yaba = 14.2 Miles Total (excluding the short waka around area) =140.4 Miles Fuel at Quarter Tank. Consumed is 52.6 Litres 140.4 Miles to 52.6 Litres. just occurred to me that the car reports exactly half of the Mileage. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by timifakay(m): 9:20pm On Mar 22, 2019 |
4llerbuntu: 140*1.6=224.64km 224.64km/52.6l = 4.27km/l |

timifakay: Except the Vechile is a 3.3ltr engine.. If not then the car consumes fuel a lot.... Roughly 25ltrs per 100kms. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by 4llerbuntu(m): 7:53am On Mar 23, 2019 |
seanfer: There's another like 20km not included in that waka calculation above. But then, it's a SUV , not a corolla car. I'm sure it's consuming more fuel than it should, but I don't think a lot is a good description. It has some o2 sensor/running rich ish going on........ What would be the efficient consumption range for a old SUV that's driven in Lagos traffic? Manufacturer estimates 15-17mpg for City driving for the vehicle BTW. And that's new, oyinbo city with premium gasoline driving. Corolla level consumption is nice and all, but unrealistic for large SUVs in my view |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by seanfer(m): 8:55am On Mar 23, 2019 |
4llerbuntu: With the Bolded.. You should be charged for giving incomplete information from the beginning .... All this while I thought it's a sedan, Fix the 02 sensor and continue enjoying your Vehicle.... |

4llerbuntu:A litre to 4.3km ....guy you're dead!! What motor is this? |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by 4llerbuntu(m): 10:47pm On Mar 24, 2019 |
CityNGR: Which one is your dead in this issue? The vehicle is rated at 15mpg by the manufacturer for City driving....... I'm not complaining about fuel consumption Oga, I'm asking why the vehicle is reporting half of the mileage and consumption. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by CityNGR: 10:51pm On Mar 24, 2019 |
4llerbuntu:No vex I'm really feeling for you and our environment |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by 4llerbuntu(m): 11:16am On Mar 25, 2019 |
CityNGR: LOL DON'T YOU GET IT!!!! IM SAYING THE CAR IS REPORTING HALF OF THE TRUE MILEAGE/CONSUMPTION it means i'm actually saying its 1 litre to to 8.6 km by your own calculation( if thats the true calculation.), real consumption. your corolla does 1 litre to 100 km? again, i'm trying to find out why my car reports half of mileage/consumption? Meanwhile if the 2017 Corolla is rated 6.1L to 100KM, then my old SUV is actually doing very very well, don't you think?

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by 4llerbuntu(m): 12:46pm On Mar 25, 2019 |
CityNGR: LMAO. Ok. My motor, old school SUV, the odometer used to read half of the distance that I cover. E.g if I drive for 10miles, the Odometer will show 5 miles. That's my problem |

nurey:How's that done? |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by nurey(m): 11:18pm On Mar 25, 2019 |
Costee:officially by using a scan tool unofficially by doing some connection on the unit SECU kazeem way by by passing the NATS radio. |
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by Nobody: 12:32am On Mar 26, 2019 |
nurey:I'm yet to come across a scan tool that has the option of disabling the NATS immobilizer function. I can't comment on the Kazeem way, although I know you could sell a dummy to the immobilizer, but not disable it, by placing a programmed transponder chip on the NATS antenna on the ignition barrel. In this case, anything that turns the ignition lock is allowed to start your car. 1 Like 1 Share |

nurey:Thanks for the review nurey, would definitely give it a try. Cos I'm finding it difficult getting the recommended original toyota long life coolant,as there seems to be lots of fake in the market. |
