Re: Poor gas mileage on 2002 Regal

Why do you find this difficult to swallow? Do you even realize what factors affect fuel mileage? Do you know what is the EPA estimate mileage is on this model? It is estimated mpg, city/hwy
18/28.

As a tech being considered with a fuel mileage concern I would look at long term and short term fuel trim. If the data is within parameters I would ship the car with an explanation of factors that determine fuel economy and that the car is working to factory design!
