How many miles or km was that?

if I drove at 120km for two hours that would be about a 1/4 to 1/3 tank

Now...if I was driving 120mph well thats more like 3/4 tank

Yep,,blame the wire eating weasels or martens. After they eat your wires, they head to the gas tank for a long drink.

Now, if only we can teach them how to light their farts.

at 120KPH, the OBC reports using about 9L/100KM. I find that to be the optimum speed to run at. 100KPH sucks just under 10. Watch the OBC for the numbers... Test 7 for the MTL I believe.

Yea, something's up, J. I've been getting 9.1-9.2L/100km at 120km/h with my 540. Time for plugs, filter, O2 change?

Cheers,

Try driving at 140mph for a sustained period. You can actually watch the fuel gauge move down the scale as it sucks the juice.

As for 120kmh, thats about 70mph? I don't usually drive that slow, but at a guess about 1/4 to 1/3 of a tank for 2 hours continuous. At 85-90mph for 4 hours I get about 260 miles to 7/8 of a full tank. That's the thick end of £60 for 4 hours entertainment......

<EDIT> Just returned from a 120 mile round trip, averaged 90mph all the way - used less than 1/4 tank.
