This is me thinking out loud....

Well that experience did not last long. I am not sure if this was a fluke or not but I am back to average readings. I doubt that I will break 700 km in this tank. I am sure that it is not connected with the replacement of the brakes, as soon as I lift my brakes the car will roll on a 0.4% grade(my driveway lol). My driving habits have not changed significantly, however I have started some carpooling (in reality increases my commuting mileage by 25%) but the per tank mileage takes a hit with shorter trips... instead of 4 - 100 km trips I now have 2 - 100km and then 2 - 50 km in a two day cycle.

For now on I guess I will track weather conditions and lengths of trips.
