Hi,
i was just wandering how much miles does 20 litres last you?

Gen 6 celica 2.0L GT

and is the weather affecting your mpg>?

I used to get 130ish miles with 20litres now i get only 100 miles with 20 litres?

What is the normal mpg like for celica users?
Also what is the best engine oil to use?

Regards

it's not so much that your fuel efficiency is different from mine, but it's more like the difference of my summer and winter efficiencies compared to your mileage. the weather here goes from an average of about 80 deg in the summer to -8 deg in the winter and the difference in my mileage is about 3 (in the winter, it includes 5 mins of warming up each start up, driving through snow, slower traffic due to slippery conditions, etc.), but yours is about 5.7 mpg difference which is more than the weather alone affecting this change in fuel efficiency.

if the car doesn't feel like it lost power (since when you were getting 24.6 mpg), then more likely you compression is still ok and that your o2 sensor is not reading correctly and constantly dumping extra unnecessary fuel even at normal operating temps. but that's just my guess...
