Default Re: mileage

With my 5M Getting 38 MPG at 50% highway at 75-90MPH. Now its spring. Not broken in yet. I reccommend the WIX 51394 (or -96 longer unit) filter over the Thai Denso the stearlership sells. Its better constructed and flows better than the thai denso.

The only real complaint I have is: sagging springs in the rear screwing up the handling balance (I weigh 230lbs). And poor handling around town for a micro car. The Fit will eat it alive handling wise, but I am NOT a Honda fan. I have the optional 15's with the re092 'stones and the cold weather pack. My heater KILLS the alternator - something worng with the power buss to the ECU and heater and radio not pinned down yet - car will not idle with the heater on HI. Didint expect to have electrical probs with a Toyota.
