Hi Everyone,
I have a Fortuner GXL that i brought last year October. I am getting mileage of around 12.5 -13.9 l/100 km in mixed driving conditions(driving around Brisbane) and around 9 on the highway. Stock vehicle with no modifications done. I have done some research and looks like DPF on these things might be a problem. Has anyone else noticed poor mileage? I have done around 4.9k on the speedo. I read about the DPF recall in another post but when I contacted toyota they say that there is no recall of DPF and dont even acknowlege TNF 89/16. Toyota even says that this is within acceptable limits. I wonder how could 50% deviation from their reported standards ( as per their ADR 81/20 filing) be standard.
Did anyone face this problem before and what have they done to fix this?
