Replying to: walterquint (Apr 05, 2007 4:59 pm) My 2006 Cobalt's MPG is down to 24MPG from 27. I am seriously considering putting in a K&N Air Filter to replace the OEM filter. I hear the K&N filters can increase MPG by up to 4MPG and increase power. |

I just shake my head in misbelief. Only have 150 miles on my 07 2.2 LT 1 W/Auto. Haven't been drving it with economy in mind & won't until I get few more miles on it. More concerned with getting the initial break-in with varying speeds & moderate to hard acceleration for short periods of time etc. Any who, the computer is telling me I'm averaging nearly 38 MPG. I do have the tires aired up but nothing else. If this car does this on a 1,050 mile trip I have planned in 3 weeks I'll be happier than a pig in slop. |

Replying to: cmhj2000 (Aug 11, 2007 6:11 pm) Then I put my mileage to "0" and when it's time to fill up I do the same as explained above. Take the mileage divided by the gallons burned, and there you go, you get your exact m.p.g. The computer gives you the average m.p.g. that you did in the passed hour of driving. Not to accurate.

Replying to: poncho167 (Aug 12, 2007 3:57 am) Was simply commenting I don't believe what the computer is saying. Will report back my overall average of about 2,500 miles that'll be logged for the first half of Sep. |
