250 to a tank dayum.

Im pretty pleased with how well it sips on fuel, i hate going to the servo to fill up, i always get the bogans in their commos and falcons eye me and the car down like its some sort of Ferrari and they've never seen one in their life, then go to pay and have the chick or dude go "What type of car is that?!" or quote exact from 2nd last time i filled up "awww yeah thats siick broo aye"

Yeah Love Capalaba <3 :lol:

Only time i really go hard is on the highway/on-ramp and if theirs a few chicky babes in the car next to me and ill give em a race :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yeah, same currently, but the car did use to do more.

Do a service, and then start replacing sensors and exhaust parts.

I have 1 thing left, and that's the temperature sensor.
What would you recommend I change to improve my fuel consumption?
