[QUOTE="jarance, post: 220316, member: 21"] I also used to have high fuel consumption as well after doing up everything I can think of. Finally, the culprit for the high consumption was :- 1. Fuel was leaking at the hose where the level sensor is located. 2. Locking cap for level sensor was not secure tightly. 3. Hose clip was loose in the engine compartment near the inlet of the fuel rail. this problem is hard to locate unless you know what to look for. FYI, the problems above are three seperate cases which took me sometime to determine when my fuel consumption start to increase over a duration of usage. I think your problem for the high consumption is leaking petrol... Just follow your nose.... [/QUOTE]
