K11 Micra Fuel Consumption

[CMF_mycra]

Hey Plz:

I was wondering how many Kms out of a Full tank does everyone get out of their K11 Micras? (im getting around 450-480 B4 Warning Light). Recently been comparing mine with a 01 Suzuki Ignis 1.3 5door, it gets over 550 easy and even close to 580(35L Tank). Both cars weight roughly the same, but the Micra has more grunt and pulls more. Micra's 160.000, Ignis 100.000. The Micra's Running Botch Iridiums, Pod and Jst serviced. Anything wrong with the Micra? Losing fuel Somewhere perhaps? Or is Japan made Engine that much better...

Just a question - have you actually taken the car 'til completely empty to find out how much is actually left in the tank? You're not really draining it completely unless it is actually empty and you can't compare the cars' warning lights as they very likely come on at different points.

The topic has been done to death though. Do a search for 'fuel consumption'.
