Hi - great forum, lots of interesting stuff here, I drive a 1999 toyota camry V6 auto. I am tempted to start doing more but I have taken out about 70kg by swapping the spare tyre for a can of goo, leaving out the boot floor / lining, removing the rear door electric lock actuators, some rear parcel shelf sound deadening - which did not seem to make any sound difference.

100+ Hypermiling / ecodriving tips & tactics for better mpg - EcoModder.com as a guide. Start with the less visible mods : More pressure in the tyres. Many on here run the max. sidewall pressure on the tyres, some run even higher pressures. I run 3.5 bar (51 psi) the rated max of the tyre. Upper grille block - partial or even full if that doesn't lead to excessive heat in the Ozzie summer. Quote:
On the motorway; the effect is hard to spot. Obviously, a small bit here and there will help the overall fuel efficiency. |
