    baka naman it is skipping a tooth. unlikely, but the only explanation I can think of...

    replacing timing belt lang ba ang pinagawa mo?

    Kung palit lang ng timing belt. I would suggest to tune up your car also and re-time the timing.

    Have them check that they replaced everything properly... do you experience a loss of power? Having the belt off one tooth will negatively affect performance and fuel consumption .

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    yeah, it shouldn't be affected by the timing belt unless it was incorrectly installed.

    Aside from the the fuel consumption, how about noise, smoke, temp, power and response?

    Baka low pressure yung gulong mo, o di maganda ang quality ng fuel mo, o madumi lang ang fuel injectors. Pwede ring yung brake mo sumasabit.

    let it relearn then measure again in a week or 2 siguro. aside from that kung tama yung kabit there should be no effect.

    My FC on my APV is degrading. It barely at 5km/li while it used to be 7-8 km/li. Made PMS a few months ago, replacing all fluids, filters, spark plugs and belts. Everytime i drive i can observe the fuel gauge go down rather fast. I turned off the aircon on the return trip, the gauge somewhat stood still.

    Try also cleaning the sensors (does the APV use a MAF sensor after the air intake? This can be cleaned with electric contact cleaner).

    If you drive in the metro, have you considered that traffic lately just plain sucks? It's really gotten worse. I used to average 10-11km/L city driving in my Altis just a little over a year ago; now i'm doing 8.5 to 9km/L with everything else constant in the condition of the vehicle. I thought my Sentra (carburetor) was in need of tuning as i was getting a terrible 5-6km/L at times. I drove it one weekend and i hit 12km/L in the city.

    Using the lowest viscosity oils in your owners manual helps. Also good tints ie vkool helps maitain a cooler cabin helping the a/c. Tire pressure also plays big role in fuel consumption.

    I did used the oils as indicated in the owner's manual. Tire pressure is also good, at 30psi. I'll have my ride checked soon.

    In bumper to bumper traffic. Keep distance from the car in front of you, it helps with the cooling and fc improves.

help! FC tumaas
