fuel figures
guys i recently replaced my cluster with a triple window one. currently my car shows AVE SPEED IS 20KM AND THE AVE FUEL IS 15.5. is this figure correct or my car is drinking fuel alot???? its a v6 vx commodore
How hard can it be?
Given your average speed, can I assume you're stuck in traffic mostly? Or driving around town? If so, 15.5 L/100km is not unreasonable.

Your right mate mostly I drive around town and stuck in traffic aswell.although my fuel gauge is on half distance to empty showing 260km left.
i did install my triple window cluster yesterday so i think i should drive maybe more to get it less then that. other thing is i read bout some guys here when they upgraded there single window cluster to the triple one they ran some extra wires i don't know why??? mine i did get from a vx berlina and it was a straight swap plug and play no airbag lights came on or anything but the PRND321 which usually lights in berlina it doesn't work in mine coz mine is an acclaim it doesn't have this extra feature in it. but am happy anyway with the more extra information am getting on board...
How hard can it be?
At 15L/100km, if you drained your tank dry you should get 500km from the tank. So if anything your fuel gauge is highly accurate lol. 15L/100km is perfectly fine in traffic, I drive through mostly 60 and 80 zones and bit through Penrith and I get 12L/100km on average to give you an idea, mine is a VT, V6 Auto.
It's the problem with big cars like this you burn a lot of fuel getting it up to speed, they're really good on fuel cruising at 100kph, but in town- bit nuts.

15L/100km isnt that bad, For driving in the city.. sounds normal...
Take it down the highway and see if it returns a lower results.. E.G my dads driving back from Perth in my brothers VX and he says hes getting 10l/100km
I wouldnt be to fussed about 15l/100km around city though.. Most cars average that..
living the low life
id be LUCKY to get 400kms out of my SS haha, and its dead stock.
350kms is more likely
