    Totally inaccurate mpg readings

    Over the last 10 tank fills and 2804 miles, I've been tracking the fuel used and the mpg readout at the time of the fill. I then multiplied the miles driven by the indicated mpg for each of the fills; added these numbers together; and then divided by the total miles driven. That gave me an...

    Please help....4.6L mpg vs 3.8L mpg....Real world

    Please help I was solely looking at the v6 to save money on gas, but I found a fantastic deal on 2011 4.6L v8 fully loaded with every single option. Please give me real world numbers if you own a 3.8L v6 and real world numbers if you own the 4.6L v8. Thank you so much.

    Lousy mpg accuracy read out

    I've been careful not to reset my mpg readout during the last two tank fills. Doing the math indicates it's reading 7% high. I have been using 87 octane which could be a part of it, however. I'm going to have to try 92 octane to see if that makes for better correlation. I wish the mpg...

    What MPG are you getting on your genesis, and fog lights question

    I am new to the forum and I just got my used 2010 genesis few days ago. I love the v8 and it moves. The thing is the advertised MPG of 17 and I never really touched that number since I started using this car. My trip computer says I'm only doing 15 MPG. I am not pushing it hard and my max was...

    I just got a new 3.8 genesis sedan premium package and on the 2nd day am averaging 34 miles per gallon on interstate when there was not much traffic (I reset just before I got on the highway and after driving 50 miles at 65 miles per hour). Then in downtown it was stop and go for 4 miles and it...

    What is your True MPG

    I've been considering getting a 2012 Genesis. Was wondering what kind of gas mileage you all are getting. I'm considering getting the R-Spec. The dealership has one that the owner drove (2500) miles. Asking price is 40,000. Not a bad deal. But I've also noticed that many of the people got a...

    MPG calc

    Does the average mpg calculation reset/start over every time you fill the tank? In my Volvo, the average is a continual recalculation to show what your overall average mpg has been. In the Genesis, I never know what average I'm seeing. It can show 29.2 on a trip, then I stop for gas and when I...

    I have completed my trip to Canada and can report the milage is much improved in my 2012 3.8. For the 540 miles total trip it did 30.3 mpg this included the usual messing about at the border.

    2012 4.6 MPG - This can't be right??

    I have been driving my new car for a couple days - 500 miles already! Yesterday I filled it up and reset the trip and avg MPG display so that I could take a quick check of what the mileage is. I drove to work today, my usual commute (about 90% freeway) and filled up again back home. The car...

    Up to 35 mpg on I-95!

    This past Friday I went out in Baltimore with a buddy. I reset the mpg calculator right when I got onto 95 North. I did the 65 mph speed limit the entire way and when the limit hit 55 (right before all the B'more exits) I stayed at 60 mph. From when I got on 95N to when I stopped at the light...

    My TL gets 13.5 mpg city. Can I do better in Genesis?

    I'm sorry if this has been beaten to death but I did 2 searches for "mpg" and "gas" and was directed to an advanced search page. That tells me there haven't been many posts about this. I currently have a 2010 TL. Don't bash it until you drive one. SH-AWD is the bomb and Acura came in 3rd...

    Cumulative MPG Total

    Is there any way to get a cumulative total of mpg. Seems every time you restart the car, the mpg display begins at 0.
