A bit of city driving and then Halifax to Sydney to the causeway. SG reported 5.9 l/100 Km. Actual was 6.1. Friggen SG is still reporting too liberally.

A bunch of highway driving but enough city driving to screw the fuel economy. SG reported 6.8 l/100Km. Left SG Cal at -11.0%. Actual economy was 7.0 l/100Km. SG is still too friggen unconservative with its numbers.

SG Reported 6.8 l/00Km. Early top up in prep for trip to Sydney. Man city driving, even a little, chews up the fuel economy.

Apr 27 2012

Left SG Cal at -11.0%. I suspect the SG would hit zero km to empty with fuel still in the tank. However SG reported 7.0 l/100Km which is what it calculates out to be. Installed summer tires at 83,155 Km.

SG reported 6.7 l/100Km. Way to fricken liberal. I don't know what I have to set this SG at to get it to be conservative. Next time I'll try -10.9%. Topped up early in prep for another Sydney run.

SG reported 6.2 l/100Km but ran out of "Km to Go" at about 900Km. Reset SG cal to -11.1%. Great tank - drove to and from Sydney on one tank and then a little around town. If the entire tank was highway, I'm sure I would have made 1,000Km on the one tank.
