OK - OK.....new O2 sensors I will buy.....20% is $6 per week on my fuel bill so that's over $300 per year...probably more like $500 taking into account long trips like next week I drive to Townsville and return.
So, I've ordered and paid (it hurt) for 2 new ones on Ebay - $58 ea plus $7 postage - gen Delphi 4 wires.
I guess I can't take good advice eh!
And I'll post on the improvement.
Thanks.'
ps...that 400km is figured for 63 litres...that's about 16 l/100km...stone the crows.

Over 200K, V6 Auto VSii and I get about 700km to the tank, mixed driving.

I always keep the oil clean, but I wouldn't say it is regularly serviced.

The VS's SHOULD be really great on fuel eco.
