Once did a run on flat road, from one petrol station to the next, no stops in between, with strong wind from back and doing 100km/h on the gps and I got something like 20.6km/l
Normal driving if I drive nice is 17, if I drive hard about 15.5.
Fernando, is your Aygo engine also very noisy when it is cold? Sounds almost like hydraulic lifters, but the difference is the noise is only there when engine is under load.
Got exactly the same replyneed to leave the car there overnight, so they can hear the noise!!
thanx Pieter!!pietpetoors wrote:Fernando, you asked about more power for the Aygo
Check this out, if it can fit in the 107 it can fit the Aygo

And how is the testing going on the TPMS? I have to invest in systems for my vehicles but don't want to buy a dudpietpetoors wrote:Fernando how is the Aygo?
Some feedback on mine:
I had to replace one tyre because it had puncture on sidewall which a plug did not fix. That was on 38,000. Was one of the fronts which still had 2mm to go.
The rear ones are still good, now on 43,000 and I am sure one will easily get 50,000 on those tyres if you rotate often. They odd size so damn expensive to replace.
The engine noise is still there and getting worse, the brakes are still soft, but it goes for service again on 45,000 then I will complain again. Still get only between 16.5 and 17km/l
Mine now has a TPMS system in, new product I am testing.
Still love the little car.
Tell us morepietpetoors wrote:So far good. Is very interesting to see how tyre pressure and temperature changes when you drive. I now saw that reason why front tyres run down quicker is not only because there is traction on front wheels (aygo) but also the front wheels tend to run hotter than th rear wheels. I think it is because of 1. brakes, 2 more weight (engine)and 3 maybe some heat from engine.
The system I am testing is nice and small and easy to install.
Just to confirm that customer's concern is that this vehicle's engine sounds noisy when cold but that the noise disappears once normal operating temperature is reached.
Vehicle was left at your Dealership overnight.
We drove the vehicle on Thursday, 24 October 2013 for testing purposes.
Normal "engine growl" (normal on Aygo motor) was heard, especially under load conditions.
Engine does become quieter immediately after required oil pressure is attained and operating temperature is achieved.
I am 100% satisfied this vehicle's engine meets all Toyota requirements and that no defects are currently noted. My sincere thanks to Pieter for affording his Aygo for test purposes.
Kind regards,

The Aygo is mos the mixed match car with the Citroen and Peugeotthink that toyota has dropped the ball on these 1000cc motors, as my one is not the only one, some of the yaris 1000cc also had the same problem
