How about the law of averages .... I've taken this same trip 50+ times and never once have I seen a MPG number above 40 until Saturday.

Lake Michigan creates it's own weather / prevailing wind

I haven't notice any real difference ... No one thinks it could be the PCM update?

The drive is NE to SW along lake Michigan so there is no tail wind I always use cruise for this trip (set at 60MPH) It was 28-38 degrees outside and the heat was set to auto (72) I am religious about my tire pressure checks ... the old tires were always at the correct PSI I always fill up before I leave (almost always at the same gas station). I took the trip two weeks ago in 65 degree weather and got the normal 40 MPG .... I guess we will see what happens next time... but something has changed. I know this car too well ...

Same exact diameter wheel and I have literally driven this same route 50 time with extremely consistent MPG results.

Last week I had snow tires put on my car and had FIELD SERVICE ACTION NUMBER: 14E02 completed on my car. I have a specific trip to my hometown that I take very frequently (2.5 hours on cruise). I took the trip last night and ended up with 45 MPG When I usually take the same trip with my stock 18" wheels (prior to the update) I would get right around 40 MPG. I was expecting my snow tires to KILL my MPG ... but now I am stumped ?! My car has 29,000 miles on it and has been extremely consistent at sucking in the MPG category.

this is a screen shot of the letter; they never responded to my email about the second MPG test I have not tried going to another dealership and test driving another car... seems like a waste of time to confirm what I already know- 235 replies
