Fuel Economy; 2005 C320 4matic Journey From Asaba To Lagos by Luxurydriverng: 11:45am On Dec 06, 2019
I recently went on a road trip with my family for a wedding in benin with my C320 4matic.

So I decided to pay close attention to my fuel consumption.

I drove from Asaba about 8km from onitsha on full tank. With passengers and a loaded boot.

See fuel gauge [image].

What do you guys think of the fuel consumption?

Many things can cause check engine light to come on, the vehicle is in perfect shape.

Good attempt. If I assume that you used 45 liters for this trip, I may be wrong or right but that outs your consumption at about 10 liters per kilometer. Not bad.

10liters Per km that is not right
