Hyundai Fuel Consumption Database

Mine is 6-7Km/L city driving only. My first time owning a Diesel vehicle, is this high or tama lang? (Starex SVX '02)

Parang di ako sanay kasi box type Lancer ko is 10-11km/L

So far sa mga nababasa ko dito sa threads, you are in the same gas consumption range. Starex with CRDI engine should do better though as far as gas consumption is concern...

I see, kala ko me problema sa van. Kabibili ko lang nito eh, ala pang isang buwan.

Also, me sipol ang sasakyan, something like wind noise, pag nasa 80KPH pataas mo lang maririnig. I checked all the doors (even putting tapes in them to see if it is a rubber seal issue pero meron pa rin. Any other location on where I should check to fix the noise?

Maybe thats the turbo kicking in...

sa turbo nga yan.

Pero parang alam problem naman sa torque and speed...ano ang fix pag Turbo? Yung source ko knows the issue and shoulder naman nya ang fix pag turbo nga...Pero parang tunong wind noise lang kasi eh. Could it be the intake of the turbo?

check your RPM, see if the wind noise kicks in at 2500 rpm... AFAIK ganon talaga tunog ng turbo.

akin nga 5.5-6km ata eh parang ang lakas nga sa gas! kasi sa ibang diesel nakaka 8-11 daw, di ng ako makapaniwala eh.....I guess normal pala yon sa starex...grabe sa lakas ng gas....dito rin kasi sa area namin super dami ng humps! kakadagadag din siguro ito sa consumption....30 humps yata ang dadaanan ko bago maka-uwi! hehehe

heavy body + underpowered engine + turbo = poor mileage.

**yakuini** · March 11th, 2005 08:17 AM

Highway okay mileage nya, umaabot din ng 10-11km/L.

As with the wind noise, its not with the RPM kasi pag nasa 2nd gear ako umaabot ako ng 3K RPM ala naman. Noticeable talaga sya pag nasa 80KPH na ang speed.

If the problem is with Turbo, are there any tips on how to fix this or kailangang dalhin ito sa shop? Also, what could be the problem with the Turbo pag me sipol sya?
