Gas mileage went down?
#11
The biggest factor is how you drive. Did you drive the same speed limit as last year? A dirty air filter is a big deal if it's dirty. Not a big deal if it's pretty clean. It could be possible you filled up with non ethanol gas and this year was 10% ethanol gas.

don't feel bad..my s10 has normally been getting close to 30mpg but in last month i've gotten new started, altenator, plugs, oil change and air filter and my gas mileage has went down at least 5mpg. i can't tell the difference in my gt, its hard to stay out of the pedal there. Right now, the percentage in ethanol is growing in fuel. when i get gas at an ethanol free station my mileage goes way up. Don't feel bad thinking its your car. Its the gas companies poking us in the gas!

Forgot to add also my car did the failsafe mode when I jumped on it after having it in cruise control from a while. I guess its that TSB where the car stutters after cruising for a while when you get on it. Mine actually killed the engine and I had to turn it back on at freeway speeds.
