I'm nothappy with my MPG as compared to most of you:
I reported back in May that my '01 9-5 lpt wagon (auto) with 10k miles was getting around 25.6MPG (SID) and 24.7MPG (calculated) for ave speed = 56MPH.
Now with just under 13k miles, last tank got 23.2MPG (SID) and 22.7MPG (calculated) with ave speed = 35MPH. Obviuosly there were more city miles in this instance, but I'm surprised at the drop in mileage.
The dealer reprogrammed my ECU at the 10k service interval to correct a rngine racing problem. Since then I think the mileage has dropped. I've also noticed more black deposits in the tail pipe...almost like it is running rich....
