What are the main reasons for the high fuel consumption of Golf 6?
1 Answers
Golf 6 has high fuel consumption mainly due to the following reasons: 1. Fuel consumption fluctuations caused by temperature changes: Generally, in winter when the temperature is low, fuel consumption tends to increase, almost comparable to the fuel consumption when using air conditioning in summer. This is because low temperatures cause the engine to dissipate more heat. 2. Lack of regular vehicle maintenance: Dirty engine oil and air filters can also lead to increased fuel consumption. Dirty engine oil results in poor lubrication, increasing resistance in various moving parts of the engine, which requires more energy to overcome, thereby increasing fuel consumption. 3. Spark plugs need replacement: Spark plugs are often overlooked. Although they may still function, worn spark plugs can cause insufficient ignition energy, leading to delayed ignition and missing the optimal ignition timing.
