If it's any help at all, I've had 26 mpg out of my V8.
I was being a good boy that day.

Just wondering what people are getting MPG wise from their 3.8 V6. Any tips for improvement. Cheers |

If I drive my Z28 the 4 miles to work for a week in the summer I get around 16-17. On a long run to the seaside about 27. My daily driver is a 2.6 V6 Omega, I drive it mostly to work and back as carefully as I can, I get 15-16! It'll do 34 on a long run. It's a lovely car, 17 years old, but it does like a drink. It does have 4 camshafts though but only claims 190 bhp. I suppose it's quick for it's age but vs the Z28 it's a slug. But they are very nice drive and very spacious. A lot more modern engine than the Z28. But I think V6's are a thirsty engine. I keep it because it cost me £200, 2 years, 2 MOT's and nothing all, not even a bulb. Except it cracked a coil pack last winter which was £65 and 30 minutes to replace, that's all I have ever spent on it. I decided that the Camaro does smiles to the gallon (which is definitely true!) and just make sure that I know where the filling stations are! roll on summer. Tom |
