I was thinking that my consumption was a bit high but seems it is on a par with the Ranger (quite like the Ranger too just got a better deal at the time I bought from Nissan). Believe it or not the highest consumptions was 18 l/100km travelling into a headwind on the Nullabor. Did a double crossing of Australia E-W via the Nullabor and then W-E through the deserts.not towing on this trip but the ute was fully loaded and I averaged 14 l/100km for the round trip. When not towing I get around the 12.5 on the highway and 13 around town. Saturday, at 14:16Colin.those are similar figures I get from my auto 2.5 D40 Navara when towing. Had air bags fiited and then rear springs beefed up in Cairns 3 years ago when had the tray top as it was a bit heavy.Ĭouple of months ago fitted a DP Chip, gives me a bit more power on the hills but hasn't improved the L/Km that I can measure, probably an expensive toy.Ībout to head off soon on a longer trip and next May doing the round the paddock thing again including Gibb River rd and Mitchell plateau when we will leave van at Kununurra and tent it for a few weeks.īloke who did my RWC a couple of weeks ago told me the manual Rangers had some clutch and gearbox problems but he had not seen any with the auto. When towing I do oil changes every 5000km instead of the log book 10000km. No problems with towing and also previously had a 4.85 Trailcraft and a Tray top camper on same vehicle with no problem. Towing 17ft Millard all round the paddock last year averaged 17l/100km. Saturday, at 13:30Can only talk about the 2007 Ranger auto 3Litre I have had since new and now finished 140000 trouble free KMs.
