hi,
does anyone have any experience of the fuel consumption for tuscon. I just got my 2.7 l and it seems to be drinking gas. The trip computer says I get 18.1 L/100km.... which is way off the 10 l/100km in the hyundai brochure.
could this just be that it needs running in? I hope so as its way off even my old santa fe when it comes to fuel ecomony!

anyone else have similar...

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE

All the tuscan fuel consumption issues have now been grouped together in the post entitled 'fuel consumption issues' this has been done to tidy up the tuscan forum, please do not start any new topics regarding fuel consumption, just add any further comments to the two topics listed above...montego (moderator)

Can please anyone help me cause Hyundai in Cyprus claims that they never had such an issue and need to find out the problem. When I first purchased the car it showed 484Kilometers to empty, then after a few refuelings it showed 399 to empty today it showed 371 to empty!!!!!!! IS there something I can do on my own?

POST YOUR MPG and MILEAGE

no reasons
no thoughts or input

i just want to see what is really "average"

HI, I am the new owner of a 2005 2.7L Automatic Trajet. We have a Honda Jazz but wanted something to transport the kids and their mates.
I picked it up from the dealer this morning and coming down the freeway noticed a lot of vibration at 100km.
I know that this is probably a wheel balancing problem, the tyres appear to be new but there is no evidence of balancing. I was wondering if...

One thing I have noticed with my journeys to and from work. I used to log 28.5 miles each way when driving my Toyota Carina (could sometimes claim mileage if called out) Now I am recording 26.3 for the same journey!! Could the Tuc be under declaring mileage? Has anyone else out there noticed any change in your jouney length?

A question to all Tucson CDX or GSI CRTD 6 speed owners:

If there is an improvement (in reality, not just what is stated in the brochure) in the fuel consumption of the latest Tucson 138 bhp, 6 speed box CDX or GSI over that of the older 5 speed versions, can anyone please comment on how much better (if at all!) it really is?

Or if you didn't have the older one...

Hello Everyone,

I am in the UK and I'm new on this forum, having joined only yesterday, so hi everyone!

I have almost completed a p/x deal; my Vectra GSI 3.2 V6 for a 2005 Tucson CDX CRTd. However, I am holding back at present as I have only discovered some disturbing feedback from current owners concerning fuel consumption. First of all, can anyone please tell me...

Hi all, this is my first post but I have been a default/' '' /> happy Tucson Elite V6 owner since April this year. We love our Tucson except for, you guessed it fc. We are averaging 14.5l/100k after doing about 8500km.

Anyway getting to my topic title, I spoke with...

Hi:

I have a Tucson 2.0 (2006) and drive mostly in town at 1500 M elevation. Some road driving up to 3000 meters elevation in the Andean region. I have so far 2500 km with my new car and I see about 12.5 L/100 Km of fuel usage, average.
Just to start this topic, I would like to see other owners in the region posting comments and share their experience.
It would be...

Hi all

Had the "upgrade" today, after 34460 miles in my Tucson - too early to tell yet if there is any improvement but I am annoyed that the overall mileage counter has started again from zero - I now have to calculate the service intervals manually and will no doubt lead to some interesting discussions with potential future buyers!

My local dealer said that the...

I have never bothered to check the fuel economy of the Tibs i've owned before because i knew they were 'pretty good' . However on a recent trip i decided to find out exactly how good/bad the little v6 is in a Tiburon . I drove from Sudbury , Ont. to Ajax , Ont. at speeds ranging from 90-120 kph , averaging around 100 kph/60 mph . At fillup with the fuel guage showing just below 1/2...

Hi All,

I spoke to the dealer again about the fuel consumption problem on the Tucson. He agreed with me but stated quite honestly that unless people complain then Hyundai Korea will do nothing as Hyundai UK is merely a distribution centre in effect.

I'm writing to Korea and suggest that we all do to try and put a bit of pressure on them to alter the EMU as the dealer...

I filled up the 58 litres tank (officialy said in Tucson manual) with 66,5 litres and there was still some fuel inside. How come?

Hi giys as promissed I would present test results as soon as available over longer distances

which is 29.1 MPG UK Canada and 24.23 MPG US

these results come from having a lot of different drivers take it for a spin or holiday, on average...

Does anyone know if there are any aftermarket parts available that may reduce fuel consumption? Computer chips are available for most makes that improve performance at the cost of mileage but I want to go the other way. I'll give up a little performance to save at the gas pump. Also what about smaller fuel injectors? Any thoughts?

Hi everyone new owner of a Tuscon also new to the site,although I have been reading the posts for a couple of weeks.

It seems that a lot of people have made a major purchase without researching what they have finally bought.Fuel effiency etc is one of the biggest bug bears that this site's members post.You purchased a 4x4 surely you must have read a little about what was out there...

I have a 2005 base Tucson 2.0 gas 5 speed manual, front wheel drive. Like most here, I complain about the fuel consumption and how it doesn't get what Hyundai says it will. I live in the country and do very little urban driving. I average about 10L/100 kms or 28.5 mpg imperial. At a steady 100 kph in top gear the engine is at about 3000 rpm.
Recently I did an entire tank at...

It looks as if the long awaited mod is about to happen.I have had official notification that I will be contacted by the dealer within the next few days and the mod. will be carried out.
Great news and long overdue.I will be delighted to get a instant view on fuel consumption and hopefully get over the magic 30 MPG on a run.
Has anyone else had the good news yet or has my pestering...
