accord v6 fuel mileage
Slider 18 March 2005 17:23:22
	I am wondering what kind of gas mileage to expect from my 2001 accord v6.I owned it for 8 months or so and decided to see what kind of mileage I was getting.I did some figuring with city driving and I am getting a "disgusting"15.5 miles per gallon. As far as I have been reading,this seems way too low.Anyone else getting mileage this low in city driving?My tires are up to proper psi,however I have yet to replace the filters and plugs that may boost it up a bit. thanks in advance!

City get around 24-25 mpg. Highway, 3500 mile RT trip going about 75-80 mph--got 27-29 mpg, can get higher, over 30, if I slow down. Don't figure your mileage on one fill up. It will be inaccurate. Try calculating over several tankfulls and see if that makes any difference. If not, then you've got a problem. MLD

I've never got any mileage that low. I'm getting between 28 and 30 mpg in town through the winter with my Accord (same year and engine as yours). Brian

	that brings up a good point.When they test cars for mileage per gallon,they should refer to winter time or summer time.It makes a huge difference,probably as huge as highway and city.

	I have a 2004 accord V6 that I have had for nine months and I track the gas milage with a computer program and I average 26.5 MPG since I bought it new last April. I use 87 octane and most of my driving is around town. There are many reasons for such a low milage. Some thing to check are: If your buying your gas at the same place all the time maybe the gas pump computer is wrong :it reads 12 gallons but only pumps 10. Someone has a siphon hose stealing gas from your tank. I owned a 2000 accord V6 before the 2004 and averaged about 24 MPH slider wrote: I am wondering what kind of gas mileage to expect from my 2001 accord v6.I> owned it for 8 months or so and decided to see what kind of mileage I was> getting.I did some figuring with city driving and I am getting a> "disgusting"15.5 miles per gallon.> As far as I have been reading,this seems way too low.Anyone else getting> mileage this low in city driving?My tires are up to proper psi,however I> have yet to replace the filters and plugs that may boost it up a bit.> thanks in advance!

	I'm in the Ottawa area. I drive an '01 Acura TL and I get slightly better mileage than you (part of my travel around town is on a highway). Driving around town in cold weather yields bad mileage with a V6 because they seem to take forever to fully warm up (compared to a much smaller I4). Usually I can drive 350 kms with 55 liters of premium fuel in the winter and 450-500 kms in the summer. On a long highway trip at a decent speed (120 kmh) I can drive 600 kms with 58-60 litres (winter or summer doesn't make much difference).

I normally am able to put about 500 km on the tank of fuel in the winter, and close to 800 on the tank in the summer, using regular fuel. I don't know how that makes you able to say that you achieve better mileage than I do. Brian

	My mistake. I meant to answer the OP. If you achieve 800 kms in the summer, you certainly don't drive like I do. The best that I achieved was 700 kms and that was on a long trip. I used to drive a 4 cylinder Camry and it wasn't much better on the highway.

	as a matter of fact,I went to Old Orchard Beach last summer and I got 31miles PG also. I think when it warms up a bit,like it has been doing,my mileage will improve a bit.15 miles per gallon is hard to take. I am doing a highway/city mileage test and so far I am up to 300kms. ...180 of those are highway.I believe I used approx. 2/3rds of a full tank so far.This seems a lot better than the last tank.Although all city driving,I got only 227 kilometers off that last tank full "Jay Stutzmann" <Jay.Stutzmann@NOSPAM.ZIP> wrote in message news:gyJ%d.91396$r55.80816@attbi_s52...> About 30-32 on the highway is about right for me.> City is around 20.> "MLD" <MLD@verizon.net> wrote in message> news:VlC_d.5704$jt6.3707@trndny07...> > "slider" <daroy@hfx.eastlink.ca> wrote in message> > news:eDA_d.45875$ZO2.22469@edtnps84...> >> I am wondering what kind of gas mileage to expect from my 2001 accord> >> v6.I> >> owned it for 8 months or so and decided to see what kind of mileage I getting.I did some figuring with city driving and I am getting a> >> "disgusting"15.5 miles per gallon.> >> As far as I have been reading,this seems way too low.Anyone else getting> >> mileage this low in city driving?My tires are up to proper psi,however have yet to replace the filters and plugs that may boost it up a bit.> >> thanks in advance!> >> 2000 Accord EX V6.
