smac, Dec 29, 8:33pm
Just guessing.but I think they mean 2 days both ways so 4X40kms.who knows.still really high.

theram1, Dec 29, 8:39pm

john163, Dec 29, 8:40pm

Yup that aint right does it run ok check your air filter

splinter67, Dec 29, 8:59pm
Yup that aint right does it run ok check your air filter is it dragging a brake

john163, Dec 29, 9:05pm
done that, full service, oil filters etc etc had the scan tool on it with no faults checked under the car & fuel lines no leaks it does go gutless sometimes on roundabouts all I have to do is give the throtal a kick & it takes off again

brokebloke1, Dec 29, 9:05pm
Is the suzuki a 1600 auto! if so my daughter was just saying it cost her about $40/100kmswith the overdrive turned on.

john163, Dec 29, 9:11pm
yep 1600 auto so something is wrong with mine hmmmm if it was a horse it would have been put down buy now

brokebloke1, Dec 29, 9:16pm
make sure that you havnt put it into 4wd as this will suck the gas on these things, also have you changed plugs/air filter and what conditon is the catalylc converter like! we removed the one from my daughters and just have a straight pipe as the converter had collasped inside and was making the car use more gas.

john163, Dec 29, 9:18pm
removed converter changed plugs etc its not in 4x4

brokebloke1, Dec 29, 9:22pm
cleaned fuel filter and pump!

jmma, Dec 29, 9:48pm
Someone sucking it out at night (o:

Well something is wrong if it dies and you gott to kick the accelerator down to make it go, go and get someone to give it a tune up. spent $200 then you might save it back.

splinter67, Dec 29, 11:48pm
Did you do the service or was it done at a garage if not you check the air filter a lot think a full service is an oilchange and a filter. Is it carbed or injected if injected get some injector cleaner

morrisman1, Dec 29, 11:51pm
has the oxygen sensor failed!

Pull out the plugs, if they look nice and tan colour then chances are it is not engine related. If they are all black and sooty then definetely an engine management issue.

get rid of the cat converter and clean yur injectors and clean the throttle body.

john163, Dec 30, 3:11am
I did the service my self changed oil fuel air filters changed plugs leads oil etc still bogs on right hand corner (roundabout) put scanner on no faults

llortmt, Dec 30, 3:14am
OK so when looking at live data what happens when faulting!

splinter67, Dec 30, 3:15am
not sure but stay away from roundabouts and you'll be fine lol
