I have rung them up soooooooo many time's and they always say the same thing "We will call you back this afternoon with a date to bring it back in...." to be honest i'm over dealing with them.....

Is this the dealer you bought it from, or Suzuki ?
I contacted Suzuki Australia, after the local Suzuki dealer, pissed me around, got an instant responce, and the dealer got blasted !
So if no joy from the local dealer, go straight to head office !

Using 95 oct. I got 8.7l/100km last tank with hwy and town driving, and that's with a shitload of weight from bullbar, winch and drawer system... But mine is also vvt.

Edit: and a 2" exhaust and extractors

The only reason i would put 91Ron in mine again, is if they didnt sell 95Ron, even though the figures say 95Ron wont make much difference, i can feel the difference, and the engine just runs alot better !

All I have to say is mine is shit on the highway

[atari4x4]

i bet all you young punks whining about fuel economy drive like roosters.

[smiffkid]

i know that my econemy drops when i drive like a typical p plater but i put up with it and drive sensible at other times

[jimny06]

I've got a stock 06 model and get 550km for the 40L tank consistently and that's 100% city driving.

[Scales]

considering replacing my o2 sensor to see if it gets better.

[45tr0]

I've never got better than 380 to a tank from my 2009. Down to about 330 now with 215s, 3inch lift and roof basket.

This topic is the same every time. Unless you talk in ACCURATE kms/litre your post and info is wasted.

EDIT: I always get 10km/litre except when doing a lot of highway or towing.

EDIT EDIT: 10km/litre or 10 litres/100km (depending on how you want to say it.

ok then,
i use an app on my android phone to record EVERY fill up since i bought the car, so this is what it states

avg l/100 11.4
max l/100 16.1
min l/100 9.5

thats over 22 fillups, and keep in mind theres a cape york trip in there too, which probably flogged the petty. a few other small trips also.
so my absolute best figure was 9.5 L/100 which was probably pussying it around town with low revs and no aircon to see what i could get.

so am i right in thinking a change of o2 sensor could get these figures down a bit more?

Oh and i'm lucky to get 300km to a tank these day's (m13aVVT)!

Are you allowing for the larger circumference of your tyres?

That's a lot of driving!
Your fuel usage sounds alright to me.
Is that 400k's by the odometer? or, odometer + 6% for larger tyre circumference?
