This is more of an infomative thread.

According to my Acura 2012 manual, to get miles per gallon you have to take miles driven and devided by gallons of fuel.

I did the math for my old TL-S 2007 and i got 11MPG!!

Miles Driven / Gallons of Fuel = Mile per Gallon

 

Thats pretty bad mine is about 14-17 mpg. On my old RL the rear brakes seized a bit and i was getting 9-10mpg lol.

 

mine is about 14-17 too

 

I reset my trip odometer every time I fill up and I consistently average 18-23 MPG's.

 

I am yet to reach an empty tank. As soon as i do i'll calculate my millage and post it.

Is there a "break-in" period for calculating the millage on a brand new car?

 

A new cars "break-in" period can be a few thousand miles depending on car and how you drive.
But for MPG give it 500 - 1000.
And check the accuracy of speedometer / odometer before calcuating MPG {on track or known measured distance}.
The odometer is often off and gives false MPG.

 

<sarcasm>What a novel concept; you mean "Miles Per Gallon" is actually how many miles you can travel on a gallon of gas?</sarcasm> :eyeroll

The AWD car in stock trim will get 25-30 all day long if you keep your foot out of it. Hammer down launches = 15-20.

 

I have a running average of about 22mpg of mixed driving. Use a handy iPhone app to track gas and expenses...

 

OP the formula you gave is correct. Try calculating it with liters and kilometers which I have to do. How come nobody can spell "mileage" correctly. ;-)

 

Jajajajajajajajajaja Don1. You're right!!
