    new coolant temp sensor. 2 new oxy sensors. 3 new coils. new plugs, new leads. no error codes. using 16.4 litres per 100km driving it soft and it keeps on rising. out the road was getting 9 litres per 100km. i cant stress enough how im getting to my speed not too slowly to keep it under too much load. once its at 60kmh i stay there. i am not flogging it is is getting about 190km per tank im out of ideas.

    have you tried some premium fuel and injector cleaner? also is ur air filter and MAF clean?

    and if your really keen take you trottle body off give it a good clean, and then take the lid off the plenum and do the same

    good luck
