With the fuel gauge issue fixed (see 'Baffled?'), we can check gas mileage. So far, according to the computer, it doesn't look like it will get to the 29MPG EPA hiway, even with great care.
Can the computer be calibrated as on the 9000?
What should we expect on long trips? I saw claims of over 30 on this list.
The plugs have never been changed and the steering center is slightly off, so I will be correcting those soon. Anything else to check?
It has 3 of the original Pirelli summer tires. Any advice on low rolling resistance all-season tires-- was thinking Nokian WR, but how are they on drag?
