In the 2000 4cyl LX 5spd:
29-32 mpg mostly city driving
32-36 mpg if I ever get to do all highway
My wife drives the V6 and I'm not sure what she gets.But I thinkshe gets around 25mpg most of the time.

Horrible.

I usually BARELY get 24mpg on my 4cyl and now I drive 160 miles a week that is on the interstate. And I drive 65mph or less!

I just want my O2 sensors to die soon so I can get the EPA thing done and hopefully itll fix it.

Plus I have an intake and exhaust which should help. I remember when my car used to get 33 on the interstate and 35 on highways.
Any ideas? ugh

When is the last time you changed your plugs? My mileage went down to the 27's on average and I knew it was time for a plug change anyway. So I changed my plugs and voila! Back to 31mpg on average (mostly city miles) again.

Probably a little over a year ago. AND they were the $50 double platnium NGK plugs!!!!!

I dont think plug wires would do that would they?

I average around 22 mpg, but I have a well known lead foot.
