RohitKumar Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 I have the steedai CAI, TBS and 93 tune, and ever since i put them on a few fuel ups a ago I have increased from 280 to 285 to now 300, and a service is coming up soon so I wonder if that will help it any. What are some other peoples MIles to E? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blumagic Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Well I went to DC a few weeks ago from Fort Bragg, NC and when i filled up it said I had 432 miles to go until E... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RohitKumar Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 wow 432 miles, how did you get it that high? is everything on the car stock? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
commishbob Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Mine usually shows about that as well. 430 to 445 as I recall. And mine is stock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptron Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 btwn 350 - 365. Averaging about 21 mpg with 3000 miles on a FWD sport....not bad even with a heavy foot xD 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RohitKumar Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 how is everyones so high?even before i had the upgrades mine was around 285, is there something wrong with my car? i bought it at 11,000 miles and now has 15,000 i haven't had time for an oil changed and idk when the last one was, maybe that is a factor? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 how is everyones so high?even before i had the upgrades mine was around 285, is there something wrong with my car? i bought it at 11,000 miles and now has 15,000 i haven't had time for an oil changed and idk when the last one was, maybe that is a factor? My 2011 Sport AWD give me 280-285 miles per fill up as well.... I suspect the the 3.0 V6 can go beyond 300, and the 4-bangers can do upwards of 430, but I'm amazed to see a 2010 sport with such fuel economy (i.e. 350-365, and 432!!). What's the secret?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 This all depends on how you drive. It's based on your average mpg and that can vary greatly from driver to driver and car to car. One good comparison factor is to reset your average mpg and mph and then compare both. If your average mpg is lower then you average speed (mph) will also usually be lower and that explains why. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FusionDiffusion Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 (edited) The computer keeps track of your average milage for the past 500 miles and uses it to compute the distance to empty. If you want to see what it is, it shows up in ETM. I routinely see about 420-430 miles on mine. The furthest I've actually gone on a tank was right around 400 miles. Edit: I'm FWD and drive mostly highway. Today it said 460 miles when I filled up. Edited June 22, 2012 by FusionDiffusion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RohitKumar Posted June 21, 2012 Author Share Posted June 21, 2012 for those of you with the over 300 Miles to Empty do you have the AWD or FWD? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imccrea83 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I've tracked almost 7,000 miles and am averaging 330 miles/tank. I typically fuel up when it's somewhat close to E, averaging about 15.7 gallons per fillup. Farthest I've gone is 374.2 on 16 gallons. AWD Sport btw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RohitKumar Posted June 22, 2012 Author Share Posted June 22, 2012 how are you able to get those miles? i checked thru my info on the dash and there is no average MPH, there was on my old 08 fusion tho. i usually drive efficiently, every now and then driving aggressive on the highway. I have to go to work and class in a city tho so maybe city driving is killing me? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FusionDiffusion Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 (edited) The biggest factor is how your drive. I drive almost all highway. If you want to know more, read my 28+ MPG thread in this section for a discussion. You can check your running average fuel economy (RAFE) in engineering test mode (ETM). Hold Reset while you turn your key to on. Once you're in, keep pressing Reset until you see this: This is the value used for the distance to empty (DTE) calculation. It's a running average over the past 500 miles or so. You can exit ETM by holding reset again or turning the key off.

imccrea83 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 how are you able to get those miles? i checked thru my info on the dash and there is no average MPH, there was on my old 08 fusion tho. i usually drive efficiently, every now and then driving aggressive on the highway. I have to go to work and class in a city tho so maybe city driving is killing me? I drive across the Denver metro area to get to work 20 miles each way. Slowest speed limit I encounter is 40 MPH and I typically go 45-50 along this route. I hit freeways twice going 55-70 MPH. I have roughly 10-15 signal lights that I hit about 60% of time. I really don't drive any differently I just make sure I don't fuel up til it reads 10-20 miles DTE. I also don't stop fueling up when it clicks off because I know I can get .5 gallon up to 1 gallon more in the tank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manueljones Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Have seen 512 DTE before in my 2.5 after fill-up. Mostly 2 lane country driving @ 55 speed limit with very little city driving.

DocPFFP Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I'm getting between 407 and 420 on my 2012 FWD Sport. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccd228 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I was only getting about 300 then had a vapor management value defect and since replaced my mpg's have increased alot. Now getting 400-420 per tank on 2012 sport. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyzik Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Wow, I am surprised too that so many are getting in the 400s. I have a 06 2.3 and am getting around 430. Though I am doing about half city and half freeway every day. So I am sure it could be improved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klink1983 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 No modifications.... I range anywhere from 750 to just shy of 900km depending on my driving habits. I get my best when I am on the highway obviously. I am thinking of putting in a K&N air filter on mine.... potentially a CAI but I am still thinking of that idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeytheman247 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Just filled up today and it said 372 till empty. I have a AWD Sport avg. 22.4 mpg. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RohitKumar Posted August 3, 2012 Author Share Posted August 3, 2012 so something must be wrong with mine? i drove pretty conservatively and my max for the AWD was 330. After getting a service, for some reason it went down even more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav3rick Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 RohitKumar - Have you done a hand calculation of your MPG lately? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RohitKumar Posted August 4, 2012 Author Share Posted August 4, 2012 yeah and i use fuelly mobile, and i never get anywhere near what these other AWD sport guys r getting, some are getting in the 400s 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav3rick Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 what do you usually get for MPGs when driving conservatively? (hand calculated) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RohitKumar Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 with highway and city, 22.5mpg just went on a trip from CT to atlantic city, majority highway driving, got 26MPG and after one fill up when i got there it was 350 MTE , had some city driving, filled up again when i got back, 330 MTE, still not the 400 others have gotten i do city driving alot at home so maybe that is why its so low 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
