Replying to: phil53 (Aug 06, 2008 5:35 am) The chrome grill inserts are a Nissan dealer part.mynissanparts.com I installed the kit myself. I also installed body side molding from SportWing and had my dealer install the rear spoiler.      As far as gas milage.... I bought my Rogue in November and now have 19500 miles on it. I work out of my Rogue and drive 300 - 400 miles a week. I am getting 25 - 26 MPG running 70% city and 30 % highway.

Replying to: pitkeys (Aug 06, 2008 8:53 am) Have to agree on the OEMs. My main concern is that they are very much a highway tire and don't even look like they'd be much use in the snow. The problem is, the tire size on the Rogue is a bit odd, so there aren't a lot of tire choices out there. About the only thing that doesn't qualify as a 'touring' tire is the Yokohama Geolander AT. And that's a bit more aggressive than I wanted to go on this vehicle. If I decide to buy the Rogue, though, I may do that. I'd really hoped for something in between, like the Michelin Cross Terrain On the clearance, though, the specs on the Edmunds web site says the Forester has more clearance than the Rogue.

13000 miles on my Nissan Roug AWD I have complained about the gas milage since the start, Nissan Service Dep. stated since there was no trouble light on the dash panel there was nothing wrong with the car. Long story short, my Rouge is now at Nissan getting the transmition replaced. Replies to this message: captain2 (Aug 13, 2008 6:34 am) kenn2 (Aug 13, 2008 7:24 am)

Replying to: kenn2 (Aug 12, 2008 1:47 pm) stated since there was no trouble light on the dash panel there was nothing wrong with the car how stupid this sounds! - we're degenerating into a bunch of mindless idiots that look to a silly computer for answers to everything - and your Nissan Service techs are apparently in front of the line! Ultimately this sounds logical though - if your tranny is 'slipping' somehow (or if the tranny computer) is selecting gear ratios that are too high - FE would be effected. The question is, of course, why those 'trained' service techs wouldn't have been able to diagnose this with a simple test drive It's not like Nissan hasn't built a CVT before. My Rogue (SL AWD) manages 25+ mpg overall (60% highway), runs great, and can turn as low as 2100 rpm at 70. Sorry to hear about your problems and would be interested to know if the tranny replacement is the real fix. Replies to this message: kenn2 (Aug 13, 2008 7:24 am)

Replying to: captain2 (Aug 13, 2008 6:34 am) I saved your reply and will let you know, I am hoping to get 25+ mpg as well.

With our 3 week old loaded SL AWD Rogue our worst Hwy mileage was 25mpg driving somewhat agressivly around 65-70 mph. Driving in light traffic 55-60mph (DC Area) I averaged 29.2mpg,,keeeping the RPM's below 2k really made a difference in the mileage and possibly the engine and drive train breaking in as well.

Replying to: goroad1 (Aug 22, 2008 6:24 am) Thanks; that's good information. Around here (KC area), 65-70 isn't really seen as aggressive - unless you're in a 55 zone. 60 to 70 is the speed limit on most highways. Driving to work, I generally run 70 -75 on the highway portions of my commute. But 25 mpg isn't bad. That's about what I'm hearing about the Forester too.

Replying to: phil53 (Aug 23, 2008 2:52 pm) I am also seeing 25+ mpg overall (SL AWD) - about 60% highway and also at higher (75+) highway speeds. The engine turns right at 2200-2300 rpm at 70. Have a friend with a 06 Forester and he averages about the same albeit with a higher percentage highway. Think that overall the Rogue does a bit better FE wise and is a bit quicker acceleration wise all probably because of the CVT.

I've had my 2008 Rogue for about 2 weeks and do almost all city driving. I am getting 23MPG's. Maybe that is as good as it is going to get without the highway miles? Replies to this message: captain2 (Aug 25, 2008 12:31 pm)
