Hi there,

I'll like to know how reliable is the meter on the 2008 Outlander when you set the screen to L/100Km. I've done 7.5 L/100Km on a 80Km/h road, which seems way under the maximum this car can do. In the city when the traffic is bad I've averaged 17L/100km. The car was suppose to be in between 8.5L/100Km and 10.4L/100Km. I want to know if this meter really messures the gas the car burns or it just estimates consupmtion based on the average speed and the time you have been driving?

-Peter

Try resetting the count each trip. Just hold the info button, now I had a 2hour trip all highway average 8.1/100km...not bad at all...and I've seen some trips in the city at 10/100 km...all depnds on how hilly , up and down,stop start...i've had a 5 min trip in the city average 32l/100km...i was flooring it most of the way...

They test fuel consumtion on cars on a flat surface, which really is never the case for us..

Fuel consumption can be controlled as much by the driver, as the specs of the engine..
