Hi All,

Just wondering how other C-HR's are performing fuel wise? Currently I can't get below 7.3L/100km no matter how carefully I drive. I came across a good review where it mentioned they got the test car to match the promoted figure: http://www.carconversation.com.au/reviews/2017-toyota-c-hr-koba-review but I was wondering how everyone else's C-HR was on fuel?

Anyone get below 6.4L/100km??

I would also be interested in reading the response to this question.  I don't have mine yet, but I always get better than the advertised L/100km with my cars.

My long term average is sitting around 7.1 or so. A thing I have noticed is that my long runs (traditionally my work drive) is usually 6.1 to 6.3 but it's the shorter runs around my local area which can average 8+ that push the longer term average out.

I have 1597K mixed urban and country driving and am showing 6.8. It was at 8 on delivery.

I do not drive hard and do not try and be economical.

I am aware from past experience (Subaru's) that AWD cars can be heavy on fuel. I never, in reality, expected the AWD CVT combination in a real life situation to be less than 8 or 9.

Maybe I am cynical of claimed fuel consumption, however, at 6.8 I am very impressed as I have never achieved manufacturers claimed consumption. 

A couple of questions I would be considering if you are not achieving less than 7:

  • what type of terrain do you drive in?
    • hills
    • suburbs
    • stop signs
    • Victoria, New South Wales or Queensland (all big negatives). 
  • which fuel do you use?
    • 95
    • 98
    • ethanol blended
  • are you using radar cruise and self-acceleration?
  • which driving mode are you in? 
  • do you try and keep the leaf as green as possible during manual acceleration?

Update:

Decided to commute by car today (40klm into the city) 15/06/17, 0600 - 0620hrs. At 60kph average speed, fuel consumption was 6.5L/100k.

As individual drives - Think my best has been 5.9L/100km when I bother to look at the report when stopping

This is a 36 km drive from Rowville to Port Melbourne starting at 6:00am

Down Wellington Road/Princes Highway/Queens Parade/Kings Way and a tad of side ramp of the Wesgate Fwy 

Traffic is already fairly heavy and plenty of traffic lights - Stops/Starts - arriving just before 7:00am

Contrary my drive home at 4pm (to 5.:30pm or 6:00pm - Traffic Dependent) back the same route, returns middle 7 figures

But overall, in just over 1000kms - The lifetime gauge finally said 7.0L/100kms this morning :smile:

As you said JPPJK - I am driving carefully to see what I can attain

I know I wont get this when I plant the foot a little more - will still be more frugal than my previous car though.

I was Hovering around 7.0 / 7.1 all week

But car is on 6.7 today after that trip

And Tradie's day off today made for a smoother run to work

Loving this economy :smile:

Avg of 6.8 after 900k. Not sure what dealr put in for first tank, but second tank was filled with 98. It feels smoother, quieter and faster after putting in 98. 

Most of my driving has been work commute (city link - through carlton) so generally heavy traffic. Pretty happy with this result.

A  work colleague told me yesterday that their uncle imported a hybrid Koba into Singapore and is trying to break the 1000k before refuelling. Seems like lots of people enjoy the economy.

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Generally, yes. In the 60s, and earlier, there were cars with positive grounds, so I'm always a bit hesitant to say the negative wire. It is always the one that bolts to the body. Herb

      2011 Land Cruiser 1VD-FTV Engine Won't Start After Overhaul

      Hi everyone, I have a 2011 Land Cruiser VDJ200 with a 1VD-FTV engine. I recently had the engine fully overhauled due to a blown head gasket. However, after the overhaul, the engine is not starting. It only cranks but doesn't fire. I've checked the following DTC codes: Internal memory EEPROM error Low rail pressure The actual rail pressure data shows: 240 bar during cranking 61 bar when ignition is off Based on these findings, I suspect the following potential causes: =Defective Diesel High-Pressure Pump =Leaking Piezoelectric Injectors =Diesel Fuel Bypassing to the DPF Circuit =Faulty Injector Drivers I'm hoping for some expert advice to help diagnose and resolve this problem I'm seeking expert advice on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue. Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Disconnecting batteries, ALWAYS disconnect the ground wire first. Doing this will also disconnect power, in general. Herb

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Hey guys, I’m wanting to disconnect my current winch, lightbar and UHF as I have new plans. I’ve installed a winch previously on another car so I get it’s a case of following the cables and disconnecting from the battery, etc but but safety wise, should I start by disconnecting the battery so the cables aren’t live orrrr? And if so how do it go this haha?

      Snapping wheel and axle studs

      Put a set of standard wheels on it and your problem will disappear. It is critical that the hole in the wheel centre is a snug fit on the axle boss (without wheel nuts fitted). If your wheels are sloppy on the axle boss this allows excess force on your wheel studs and they will break, as yours are doing. If you are unsure of what to do, go to a reputable tyre shop and get assistance.

      2zz idle / roughness when accelerating past 3k

      Hey everyone was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction with this issue I've been facing for a while now. My Celica's idle will drop down to almost 200rpm when stationery after hitting operating temperature. Pretty much feels like it's about to stall out but never actually does. When taking off from a set of lights it almost feels like it hesitates or is down on power and then all of a sudden it lurches forward and gets a boost in power again. Then again around 1,500-3,000rpm it feels down on power and in what I can only describe in the engine feeling scratchy. Past 3,000 rpm it gets a little boost in power again but still definitely feels down on power compared to what it used to be and still has that roughness. Note lift is also not working at the moment but I have changed the lift bolts, planning on cleaning the VVT and VVTL-i OCV's New engine mounts have been installed I changed the MAF sensor about 4 years ago albeit not OEM. After doing some research my main ideas now would be a New MAF this time OEM, TPS, IACV or Coil Packs (Changed plugs 50,000km ago) Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! :)
