Aveo - '12 Chev Aveo LS

Thanked 1 Time in 1 Post
Awesome feedback, thanks everyone. Just dropped my car off at the mechanics, it has an issue with the cooling system, it keeps boiling the water in the reservoir bottle yet the heat gauge is only on half, ive had the car for just over a month and a full tank got me 550km only, mixed driving highway and suburbs about 50/50, its a 2012 chev aveo 1.6 LS, according to the specs it has a 45 l tank, so 12.2km/l, i have been doing mainly eco driving habits, timing traffic lights, coasting in neutral on downhills and to a stop at traffic lights if i cant time it right, driving slower etc and im still not even close to what the specs say i should be getting. Specs say approx 13.6km/l average.

Im hoping the water boiling issue is some of the cause of the higher than rated fuel consumption.
