i drained my tank right to the empty mark. so i fill it up at the gas station and forget the receipt.
my kilemeters said i had 415 km to the tank when it got empty. the guy charged me 44$ cdn for the gas, i beleive it was more and he put in the wrong pump, but im forced to use this number.
at 79 cents a litre, i was charged 44$. which means about 57 litres, then 415km drivin. what do i use for milage numbers??? unit wise and how to get it
thanks

To get your mileage take the amount of km's you went on the tank and divide by the number of litre's you put in. Im usually good for 380 miles or so and put in 15 gallons. 380/15=25.3. I only have 2000 miles on my car.

I don't have any of the efficiency numbers, but my best tank was 717km's, all highway.

what do canadians use for milage?
Km/L or L/100Km ???
and im pretty sure my milage is worse than your average car.
if anyone wants to compare?
7.2Km/L
13.73L/100Km

Where did you drive to that you did 717km steady all highway, the best ive done so far was 438km on 52liters, and i still had 8liters left in the 60liter tank i believe, but the gas light turned on around 420km i believe. Ive had my car now for three weeks almost and filled it up three times, but the two other times only filled up on mondays due to the gas prices being lower. Ive noticed though since the first tank i used which was what the dealer put in, it now seems to go through id say the first 1/8th of the tank almost 1/4 tank in less than 100km. But it steadys out at around half tank to give me 200km. I guess in the end some of it depend on how you drive and what RPM your shifting at obviously.

I use both values.

The first to know my mpg in metric values,

And the second to calculate how far I can drive on my spare gas can in the trunk!

I live north of T.O., and make frequent trips to Windsor....CASINO!

I now have around 7000km's on the car, and it keeps getting better. Plus, I have the 5AT.
