Replying to: wheelman (Dec 03, 2007 5:34 am) Total disagreement on two things.   Synthetic oil is overrated. The minute amount you'll gain in mileage will be countered with the price of the stuff. At best, it's a complete wash.   DO NOT GO BY THE TIRE MANUFACTURER'S PSI. This is not smart. Fill them to "firmer" and you will wear them out faster. There is a reason to follow the car maker's recommendation and it's called safety. The vehicle was designed for tires to be filled to a certain PSI for handling, braking and ride.   I've been in the auto industry for fifteen years and you ALWAYS go by the "book" when it comes to tire PSIs.

#220 of 221 Seems to improve with time/milage by bigtsr Jun 09, 2009 (3:38 pm)
I filled up today with 503 kilometers on the trip odo since last fillup tank guage was still showing 1/4 left ( I know that's not how to determine mpg/liters per 100 km).It took 40.922 liters to auto shutoff,worked out doing the math that's 28.9 US or 8.151 L/100kms/34.65 mpg CAN.All under city driving conditions with max speed of 90 km/hr. I use Shell 87 exclusively Mopar oil and filter on my SXT 2.0/CVT which is 3 yrs old and 39,000 kms on the odo. Replies to this message: jim314 (Jun 09, 2009 5:10 pm)
