possible scangauge trouble?
The car:
08 auto
70,xxx miles
K&n air filter
No other mods
87 octane
Fresh plugs and coils
All other maintenance up to date.
The problem:
My scangauge II is consistently giving me an average of 22 mph per trip. The trip is 14 miles approx 70/30 highway/city. Even with hypermiling and keeping my foot out of it as much as possible, I can't get above 24.
This to me seem extremely low considering everyone here seems to be pulling a minimum of 29 with a stock setup.
Could I possibly have set the scangauge up wrong? It is set up per the manual. Or could something be wrong with the car?
Random scangauge numbers I thought may help:
Idle throttle position: Approx. 15
Cruising throttle position: approx 21 with a mpg average of 29
Need anymore info let me know.
Thanks for your help.
