Horrendous fuel economy... 08 Aero XWD Posted by magalar [Email] (#1325) [Profile/Gallery] (more from magalar) on Mon, 21 Oct 2013 13:35:54 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
It's not the first time I post about this subject. But this time, I suspect a problem somewhere... With premium gas, in the stop and go Montreal downtown traffic, the car is more thirsty than the 5.0 Mustang GT I drove last week. The Saab is at 18 L/100km (13 mpg) while the 2013 GT did 15.5 L/100km (15 mpg) on regular gas. Both car are manual.
There is clearly something wrong. No CEL codes, nothing apparent except a slightly rough cold start idle. It last about 30 seconds, then it smooths out by itself.
Anyone has an idea where to look for a culprit ?
55k miles, stock B284R, no sticking brakes, new filters, correct weight oil, etc...
