3VZ-E Engine Fuel Consumption

[a.zafar]

Hello Experts,

Is anyone using 3VZ-E engine with automatic transmission?

If yes can you please share the details of the fuel consumption, because i am currently getting 4km/liter in city and 6-7 km/liter on highway and these are with AC on.

Is it a normal average of 3VZ-E or do i need to check for something?

Thanks in advance for your time and valuable opinion.

3rz to be exact.. is it original engine or swapped? If its a swap many things can be wrong but driving conditions idling with Ac matters alot.
As per if everything is fine only driving style and ac usage can give 4 or 5 too.

On long what speeds are you maintaining?

Hi @qwertypoiu thanks for your feedback.
As my knowledge is very limited as compared to you guys as i have checked on internet my engine is exactly the same as it is in the image in the link below

but still i may be wrong as i know nothing compared to you guys

As far as your other questions its a swapped engine (from diesel) and swapped by the previous owners which i knew nothing about.
Regarding driving i try to make sure that i don't let him go above 2500 rpm, as it normally shifts gear around 2000rpm.

Regarding idling with AC is normally on traffic signals in Lahore as you know the traffic of Lahore

On longer route the driving is majorly on the speed from 80Km/h to 110Km/h

Let me know if i can provide any other details...once again thanks for your time.

3vz is a small sister of 5vz & very rare but i think minimum consumption will 6 to 7 + Ac in city its seems to be problem related with swap engine problem is compatibility issue with other application
needs inception by good mechanic

Thanks @thetigerzzz for the information. Do you recommend any good and reliable mechanic in Lahore whom can be trusted for such engine. Because the ones i know have no previous experience with such engine.
Actually except fuel consumption currently their is no other issue as drive is very smooth and i don't want that to mess up also. i hope you understand my point.

A lot of things can be wrong from wiring/ecu o2 sensor if it has any... second there is a difference between 3rz and 3vz i was talking about the 3rz and didnt knew if there was any 3vz... so i have no clue. mostly suv problems are taken care of in pindi.

Great. Your original post didn't mention swap hence the questions. What was the OEM motor?
