    That's definitely on the high side.

    O2 sensor is a common culprit for high fuel usage, as they often give any time after the 100,000km mark. They're not a service item so they're often left unreplaced.

    If you're concerned about your fuel economy, have a search around the forums, as it's been discussed a few times previously.

    Yes, definitely. Oxygen sensor, stuffed cat etc.

    I have the heaviest 3rd gen around and am getting 520kms/tank and averaging 12.4. Although some weeks, It gets to 540kms/tank which equates to approx 12L/100kms.
