Yeah, but it was P0300, and never got a SES for the busted sensor. The readings were all over so she ran rich as hell. Still get the P0300, but after the 02 sensor was replaced and was retuned, MPG jumped to about 22-23mpg average.

I know this is opposite to the topic, but the last fill up I divided miles driven with gallons pumped and got 28.9 miles per gallon. I better go back to elementary school because a must need a math refresher. Used a calculator with the same result.

I mean it's plausible if you drive 55MPH on the freeway ONLY,

I average somewhere between 14 and 18 mpg's. No where near Nissan claims. And thats mixed driving 60% non sport driving.

I have a spreadsheet (yes I AM an engineer

).

13 Fillups so far -- Worst was 16.53 mpg.

Current average over 4000 miles is 21.89 mpg.

Actually started doing this with one of my previous cars. I was curious if I'd get different mpgs depending on where I filled up. Over a years time I filled up at different gas stations. I consistantly got lower gas mileage at one of them (don't remember the brand at this point, it was 10 years ago and I have since moved)

18.7 gallons 140 miles. About 7.5 miles /gal. Mostly auto cross, with a little track time too.
