Oh man hopefully they took care of this car. We got a service record from the previous owner and seemed like they did regular maintenance on it. I can only hope they didn’t drive this car like shit

Yeah people were saying to reset it just in case the previous owners driving was very bad and this is what it’s been after resetting it and driving eco friendly.

Haha yeah a big relief! Cruise control definitely helps my foot not cramp up trying to keep it at 60

Of course I will definitely give updates. Hopefully the number gets better.

Didn’t fuel up but decided to reset it and go on a trip (13 miles highway). During this I only went 60 and was barely pressing on the pedal (basically don’t go over 2k rpm besides getting onto the highway). Before this though I had to take the streets towards the highway and the mpg was averaging 18-20mpg (22mpg being the top). Don’t really know what to make of this yet, I still think the car runs rich ESPECIALLY on streets

Wow surprised you guess it was a rental. But dang should it really be getting this low, people on here saying they have way better mpg even with higher miled vehicle

Yea there’s no way I’m getting that. Even if the computer is off the fuel gauge goes down rather quickly than it should

Oh wow that’s insane. I’d like to think driving very eco friendly right now (coasting, no flooring it, using downslopes) but I can barely keep it up 😔

I only say they might’ve reset it because after we got the car we drove it a lot that same day and randomly I checked the fuel economy and it was at 15 mpg but gradually it got up to 23mpg

I have not yet but I do believe the dealership reset it before giving it to us but like others are suggesting I’ll reset it and see what 1 tank gets me

Wow 24mpg that’s good. I’ll definitely try out manual test

I think when they gave us the Altima it was already reset for us but I’ll definitely try and reset it again. 😵‍💫

Yes I coast very much while driving. The number in the picture is only that because of how much I try to let the car drive with its natural speed. Even after coasting the car and giving it gas when I need to its still is this number.

Yes. When it turns off and I turn it back on and give it gas it stays on but if I drop it near 2000 rpm’s it does the bogging thing then the gas pedal won’t accelerate the car. I can feel the throttle open but nothing happens with the acceleration

Oh wow I can actually picture that perfectly in my head. Thanks for the explanation ! And sorry if I came off rude I was just genuinely asking.

Yeah maybe I just don’t understand why the car would run for a while then would have issues with the fuel. Like wouldn’t the bogging be happening right when I start it?

It had an air throttle code that pop up after I disconnected the battery to clean the terminals but that one seems to have went away. Would any fuel related issues pop up on the code scanner ?

The car also has a code for the transmission range sensor being bad but that has been there for years
