2011 Turbo MPG?
Hi
I've been calculating manually every tank. Best tank 12s - Worst in the 10s. I drive 90/10 City/Highway mix. Tons of stop and go. I already change air filter, oil, cabin filter, there are no signs of leaks, I am wondering if its normal or im getting less mpg, any suggestion or help?
Thanks

Sounds low to me.. although that much city driving is probably to blame. I live in the suburbs - and typically see around 16MPG. If I'm on a trip with a lot of highway driving (55-80MPH) I'll see 21MPG+. I've crossed the US with it 4 times now - and each trip averaged 21MPG.
What city are you driving in? LA could be a bad one since the freeways become parking lots rather frequently. NYC - I'd accept anything since it's traffic light to traffic jam to traffic light driving.

That's what I get Mach. 10s to 12s. I'm like you 90/10 in favor of city (South Florida) driving. I drive with sport mode and with a mostly heavy foot.
I do have the Turbo Power Kit which gives more hp/torque but no idea on what the effect is on gas mileage.

It certainly won't hurt to change the plugs (except your wallet - the best price I've found for them is about $11/each) - but if there weren't any misfires it won't change the MPG at all.
