I'm not sure how it works, whether the ECU measures fuel passing through the pump or the injectors or what. I know the distance to empty is reliant on the sensor in the tank that runs the fuel guage. Those things are often unreliable.

Are you sure?
I assumed they were just accumulating all the injector open times.

Ingmar,

you fitted larger injectors? If so then the l/100km display will not be correct as it has been calibrated for the OE injectors.

My display shows 4.5 l/100km :roll:

3000rpm? at what speed?

does the manual rev higher?

my auto does 100 at about 2200rpm & only 5 gears to play with.

I'm not sure about ratios in the box (is only 6th an overdrive?) but I think the auto has taller diffs. When the damper clutch kicks in I agree, I get 100 out of about those revs.

The 6 speed pre face lift gear box is one of the best things about the car (and probably the best reason to get a PFL). 4 dedicated gears with only 5th and 6th being overdrive.

Most 6 speed are 3 and 3 od, correct me if I'm wrong, and the face lifted libs have crappier gear boxes

Pretty sure the facelifts get the longer ratio box.
