Why Does the Tiggo 3 Consume More Fuel Over Time?

[RicardoLynn]

The main reasons why the Tiggo 3 consumes more fuel over time are: Engine Carbon Buildup: During long-term operation of the vehicle, gasoline inevitably produces carbon deposits and sludge during combustion. If these deposits and sludge are not cleaned in time, they will lead to increased fuel consumption. Spark Plug Failure: The function of a car's spark plug is to generate an electric spark with high voltage to ignite the air-fuel mixture. If the spark plug is damaged, it will reduce the ignition energy, causing uneven combustion of the mixture, which will result in slower acceleration and increased fuel consumption. At this point, it is necessary to promptly inspect and replace the spark plugs. Abnormal Tire Pressure: Abnormal tire pressure in a car can also affect fuel consumption. When the tire pressure is too low or the tread is severely worn, the contact area between the tire and the road surface increases, leading to greater friction, higher rolling resistance, and naturally higher fuel consumption. Conversely, excessively high tire pressure can have some fuel-saving effects, but this will reduce the ride comfort and pose a risk of tire blowouts. Therefore, drivers should also pay attention to whether the tire pressure is normal while driving.
