Hi , I 2020 gd-6 2.4 DC auto 4x4, snorkel , metal canopy , lift suspension, 265/70/17 tyres, has poor fuel consumption, between 12.8 - 14.3 litres per hundred Kms . I had stage 1 and gearbox calibration, erg electronic blank off, done but consumption stays high, have to say much more drivable than standard , mostly town driving , but similar on 200km round trip , is this normal?

Jip, jou ekstras gee jou pak.
Snorkel -1km/l
Lift -1km/l
Groter bande -1km/l

Dan daai remap.....pok, ek haat dit! :frustrated: :frustrated: :frustrated: Die standaard ecu het veiligheid parameters in wat meeste mappers bloot net uitvee net hul 'beter' map laai. Die probleem is dat niks gecheck is op 'n dyno, veral EGT's.

Mappers belowe jou die son, maan en sterre en dan nog so paar kw's maar gee nie 'n duit om hoe lank jou enjin gaan hou of wat jou brandstof verbruik gaan wees nie.

En dan moet jy nog die speedo correction in berekening bring vir die groter bande.

I have the 2016 SR model that comes standard with 225/70/17 steelies.

previous owner put on mags with 265/70/17 . I soon change to a more standard 265/65/17. Within like a month. But i do know over on 4x4community, they said that actually big difference.

I have alu canopy, 2inch lift, offroad bumper. Was doing 100-120 mostly. With one afternoon of easy offroading (4L + 4H).
Filled up on the way back and got about 9lt per 100km.

As far as i know, not remap, EGR still in place. So i can only think it's the bigger tyres.
