d22 str. was pretty good on the fuel but has gradually been getting worse till the peak of 14L/100. have been having a lot more success with the milage as i said with the injector cleaner. after having it for six months i got the beaudesert exhaust and dump pipe which made a fair difference...

yeah massive difference, have been a little lighter with the accelerator too on the longer drives. its a 2008 2.5cr. will work well because after filling it up next got a lot of trailer work to do towing up to 4 1/2 ton so will give it a good work out. running the same tyres as yourself, the...

ran injector cleaner through the ute two tanks ago and must have ben gummed up as it made it run really rough for a while even stalling at idle, however about 150kms into tank improved and have noticed a vast improvement in fuel use. gone from around 14L/100km to just over 10.7L/100km in 3...

would recommend the mickeys for sure, very good milage. have not been able to fault them. i have ben running the mtz, however have got a mate running atz on a d40, he's a stock agent and does a lot of kms on farms, dirt roads and a fair bit of tar, he swears by them.

i have just got myself another set of mickeys mtz 265/75/r16, got 60odd kms out of the last set and cant fault them off road and they are bloody good for road noise as well. was able to get them at $307 a tyre. can highly reccomend them. no rubbing on the wheel arch either with ome 2inch lift...

thanks for the tips, will look into injectors and keep trying some slower driving also. almost everytime i drive its for at least 100plus km's so should hopefully find some results.

i am currently getting about 14lt/100kms in a 2008 2.5cr str. Have had a 2 3/4 inch mandrel bent exhaust system installed with new dump pipe. cant get better economy. has anyone got any tips or hints or good mechanics to check the ute out (in victoria). running mickey thompson mtz 265/75/r16...

thanks for the heads up, still got the receipt somewhere i think. they have only done about 20000kms so heres hoping they do a lot more than that!!

i had 2" efs installed in 2008 nav and have since had to take them out, were terribly rough and did 2 sets of bushes in under 18000 kms with mostly road driving!! running ome now and much much more comfortable and better on and off road. the efs kit was just to hard on the vehicle compared...
