Terrano WD21 2.7T economy

[danielbeek]

Hi,

Interested to hear what sort of mileage other people are getting from their Terrano 2.7T wide body WD21 (stock standard... for now) on 265/70R15s.
I'm getting about 1:9.4, not great I'd have thought.
I do about 50/50 motorway/city commute to work, which is most of my mileage.

Manual or auto? mines real bad, get bout 450-500per tank, 15l/100kms... its auto

My old manual i used to get 600-650ks open road thrashing the crap out of it. Never reall y checked round town cause it never seemed thirsty enough to care about

[bruntonjm]

the best i got in my old one was 800 km, driving like a nana, normally i got about 650 to a tank.

I get 650-700 per tank. Used to get much less with no turbo.
A couple of weekends ago drove from Stratford, through the forgotten Highway, 1/2 way up Whangamomona Road and back, then up to the North Shore. Jumped in it over this weekend and it still had 1/4 of a tank. These machines are super economical.

how many litre tanks do the terranos/navara d21's have ?

[sibainmud]

I think my Terrano is 75 litre, but never use the last 5 or so litres.
Dunno about the Navara.
Cheers,

I get around 450-500 per tank which is 60l, which is about 12-14l per 100 km auto with 31s. Thats mostly country driving. I think that it should be doing heaps better than that.

autos don't generaly give as good milage as manuals but wouldn't have thought it be that big a difference.
First place i look is the trans. last auto i had was gave crap milage but after a good service/flush it dropped 3litres per hundred .
Other than that i'd check the usual stuff - filters,injectors,pump

My terrano with 33 and 4.8 diffs 2.5 straight through exhaust and 3inch snorkel did anywhere from 500 to 700 ks

best vehicle ive owned for fuel consumption

[katipo]

My auto terrano's getting near 9.5L/100km on 235/75/15s, and thats not nana driving either. It is intercooled and has a 2.5 inch exhaust though

[danielbeek]

Thanks for all the posts.
Mine's a manual btw.
Looks like my mileage isn't too bad then.

I just did some testing. With my 31x10.5 mud tyres i get 11.5l per 100km, i just went to auckland 200km exactly with my mates 30x9.5 all terrains on and got 9l per 100km. the same journey that i did to get the 11.5l per 100.
