It isn't my fault that Toyota didn't bring Caldina's to Australia and we had to buy Mum a 1998 Liberty RX!
We picked it up last Thursday having just had it's 100k service and everything seems in order.
BUT it went through a WHOLE tank of petrol in just 3 days practically.. like it must be doing like 18ltrs/100klm or something stupid.
now of course I didn't pick this up when we were testing it. It is not blowing any unburnt petrol and there are no fuel leaks. Mum said when she was going up a steep hill (big dipper north rocks) she noticed a smell of fuel.
MY thoughts: Oxy sensor? I was talking to a mate who works at NRG and he said that they can go at about 100k (the first question he asked was if that had been done) and that can cause the economy to loose the plot completely.
Now my toyota oxy sensor is going strong 211k later.. does this make sense?
I would appreciate any help you can give or ideas you have. I have no real way of testing the darn thing at home so it looks like we may have to fork out some dosh.
and before you ask, yes, I searched MRT Rally forums and aussubaru.com forums and they suck.
and I searched google.
and i made phone calls even!
