Hey guys, long time since i been on here..

Ive had no problems with the wagon, engine wise, there is a thing that is bothering me tho.

Fuel consumption, im getting around the 17L/100km even if i grandma spec drive the car.

No missing, not lean, or rich, nothing i can think of

any suggestions ?

if the engine temp sensor fails, the electronics think the engine is cold all the time so it runs rich, also the lead can fall off it

Its running at normal temp too.
Every thing is perfect, runs super well, just so fuel thirsty.

Try a new fuel filter. Another problem is that fuel return lines can go brittle and leak back near the fuel tank so your fuel runs out onto the ground.

have you checked ur tyre pressure? if its low it can affect ur fuel eco

[HARVZ-6]

What tests have you dont to clarify its not running rich?

17L/100 - is that around town, highway or mixed ?
If it's using too much fuel, then generally speaking it's running rich
check the airflow meter adjustment.

Please do a search man this has been covered many times.
U r saying that the Gauge is showing fine temp...
Well there is 2 Sensors
One for the Gauge(1 Black Wire) (where top Radiator hose goes to the Engine)
Next to it is another Thermo for the ECU to read 2 Wires in a plug.
