where as now it only yields me 170km.

I recently did an Inspection 2 and still nothing. I added a fuel cleaner to clean out the fuel system and still nothing.

Just recently changed an ignition coil that was misfiring still nothing.

Just wondering if there is anyone else with the same issues. I am running 94 octane.

Would the ignition coils need a changing maybe ?

Im at a loss here people

Thanks
Well People here is a great piece of news. I switched to Shell 91 V-Power this tank full and with the exact same driving habits at the exact same 3/4 mark yielded me an extra 33km and this is with snow tires on. So basically what my gas mileage was when I had all seasons I am now doing again with the winters on. To me that’s proof enough to stick with Shell. Damn Sunoco and there Ethenol additive crap.
