2006 Elantra GT Hatchback 16.5 MPG???
 
Dear, "H" users / owners.
Please kindly provide me with the infoarmation in regards to the actual / not book printed or I-net MPG for the 2006 "Hyundai Elntra GT" Mine got 16.5 MPG city milage - is that all right??? To me is sound like the 8 cilinder vehicle millage... Mine got only 4 -cyl., Correct??? ;-) ?? What coud have gone wroing now?? I have got new tires, wheel balancing and allignment, Tune up done! Air filter new, NGK plugs, Only BP 93 gasolkine used - always, however the millage is 16.5 ???? What do I do? Oil changed to the Mobil Fully Syntetic.... What else is out there? Oxigen sensor? Any other sensors??? What is your MPG on the same car??? Please kindly reply!

Your car was rated at about 27-mpg combined. However, how you drive has a lot to do with it. Do you drive mostly city stop and go? Are you heavy on the accelerator? Do you use the A/C a lot?

Also, your car is rated to use 87 octane gasoline. Using anythng more that that is a waste of money. 93 octane fuel does nothing for your car.

Thanks for your prompt reply. Do not use AC now at all...it is cold now....N rpm around 750... Love loud music - that is truth. Easy on the pedal - alwAys. How about the oxygen and other sensors??? Will the car give me the error codes if the sensors are bad??? Please kindly reply..

Yes, it's cold but if you use the defroster to clear the windshield, the A/C is being used.

Have you had the computer scanned for codes?

A) Never new that AC is being used even if you do not turn the AC on??? Is that truth? Is that so? Just the windshield flow turning on the AC, even when the AC light is off???
Please clarify...

B) Honestly, did not have any codes on the car yet, however does not hurt to scan the vehicle for the codes - that is truth! Thanks for your advice, Sir! I appreciate it!
Good day!

Yes, that is true. The windshield settings on the HVAC will turn on the A/C to defog the windshield. The A/C light won't turn on but the compressor is running to de-humidify the air. The windshield settings will also switch to fresh air intake if the system is set to recirculate.

Read your owners manual:
