KZTE heavy on fuel

Post by Jaco »

Your sugestions please -
What may be the possible mehanical cause of a 2003 KZTE D/C with 117000km on ODO with fuel consumption of 7.8 - 8 km/liter. The bakkie was serviced regurlarly , but the last 70000km not at Toyota dealer. The bakkie feels more "sluggish" than expected.
Does the Toyota w/shop use spesific software to update and /or check?

Please help - I am considering to buy this vehicle and can now ask for checks and repairs to be done! The bakkie is now due for 120000 km service -

Many thanks
