| Gas Milage suddenly worse - 2009 Rouge S Hi All....Just discovered this forum. I look forward to start reading around, but I wanted to start off with this question. I have a 2009 Rouge S and I noticed a couple months ago that my gas mileage seemed to suddenly decrease. I was getting right over 400 miles to a tank and that has all at once dropped to @ 350 at best.
My driving conditions have not changed at all.(same speeds / routes / usage etc). I have @ 40K miles on it. I took it to the dealer right when I noticed this and he hooked up the error code detector and saw no codes.....air filter is new...Tires good..Air Pressure good. I am in North Carolina and this time of year our gas is 10% Ethanol which I now can affect mileage, but not that much and it did not do it last year.
Any thoughts on what I could look into? Sorry for being such a noob! If this were a computer or A/V equipment I would be all over it...just not a car guy unfortunately.
Thanks for ANY help! |
