i do about 90% city driving and i seam to get at least 500 km per tank and i am alaways hard on acceleration and i am constantly in stop and go traffic. is your car idleing high or somthing perhaps you should take out the ignition and the ecc memory fuse to reset your computer. remember that if you do this you eill need to let your car relearn its idle which is outlined in your owners manual

Dayamn! Is that with a V6? I know you're a 'local' (compared to Guelph), but I think I hate you already! Naah, just kidding!!! But seriously, that's the kind of mileage I thought I'd get too. I did try to reset the computer (both ways- the battery for an hour, or the two fuses) and idle is at 750, on the nose.
