Doesn’t the system run rich and dump a little more fuel on overrun when in performance mode (so you get a few crackles and pops or a better exhaust note)? Or is that feature of the LE models only?

Guess such a feature would use a little more juice.
Hi Sky
Your right, it does dump a minute amount of fuel in to get the snap crackle and pop. But according to Holden press, not enough to alter fuel economy. I beg to differ.....
I see my fuel tends to go up 1 to 1.5lt per 100 km with it on.

^ It’s always interesting to see what the ltrs/100kms is measured/averaged over, be it 25, 50 or 500km AND also the average speed (presumably over that measure).

Without such extra info, ltrs/100kms is a little less meaningful :rolleyes: you know, apples and orange in part :p

It's funny how these cars read 2-3l while idling but every other car I've seen reads 0.

2017 HSV30 Senator, 2002 Corolla..
read 2-3l

Per hour though..probably more accurate than the cars that claim to use zero fuel at all despite their engine running..
