I get about the same as amyb in my Calais 190Kw.

Best I ever managed was 7.2lt/100km on a trip Sydney to Wagga return with my young bloke on 'L' plates trying to get his hours up.

yeah my vz calais is the 190kw, its on between 10 and 12lt/100km. and i dont mind giving it a squirt every now and then. so u guys have some issues.....

I get similar figures to 'Hotblack', 'TrentL' & 'MattMarky' in my Calais. I do a lot of country driving and avg 9.4 L/100Kms. My best has been 8.7L/100Kms. (driving like a old fart). City driving increases my fuel consumption to anything between 10 and 12 L/100Kms.
The only way to test them (your injectors) is to remove them and test them on a proper test bench. Just buy some change-over ones.

are the injectors hard to replace on the sv6

 

[Hotblack]

dont know how hard they would be to replace...you may have to remove the intake manifold, take it to a mechanic get a queote...easiest way..
