Question for people who already have their cars - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Rockytophummer · 06-15-2009, 11:28 PM

Haven't checked but got 86 miles on qtr. Tank just picked it up today. Inferno orange 2SS it had 6miles when I picked it up. They had to put new program in it. Airbag/seatbelt problem. They said the seatbelt wouldn't engage when you slammed on brakes. They told me GM called and told them they had to put new program in all there cars. And all cars they had already sold. But when I get some more miles on it I'll post an average.

Op....I have noticed that when I sit at idle the gas mileage drops quite fast according to DIC. Just an observation.

I have had mine for 5 days and have been into it a few times but also have done a fair amount of skip shifting as well (even when it wasn't called for) and am averaging 19.6 MPG. Just put my second load of fuel in.

P.S. - How do you start a new thread on this site? Anyone?

I just love this car!!

I'm not sure whether to read this sarcastically or not...

Ever since the kids came, my DIC is getting zero miles on it....BOO!!

nards444 · 06-16-2009, 01:24 PM

depends if your doing city driving or highway, stop and go kills MPG. The second factor thats probably actually the most important is how you drive it. Also once car gets past its break in point you should pick up one or two

There's allways someone in the croud.

But seriously, keep your eye on the road not on your DIC.

Or maybe your wife/girlfriend can watch your DIC for you.

Sorry
