Asked by Lou and Trish
Our 2000 Toyota Camry four-cylinder auto wagon is currently getting 13.5 L/100 km for the city and similar for the country when Toyota claims it should be getting 10.5 L/100 km and 7.0 L/100 km respectively. It has just had its 100,000 km service, which included new spark plugs and air cleaner etc., but this did not improve the figures. What could I look at to improve figures?
Answered by CarsGuide
12 Oct 2010There’s something wrong with your car to be so far away from the claimed fuel consumption figures. It needs to be checked by a mechanic with diagnostic equipment. I could be a problem with the oxygen sensor making it too rich.
