My 01 Nissan Sentra 2.0L consistantly gave 26.5 to 28.5 mpg in "Suburban Driving" I define this driving as maybe 25% highway. 60% driving in say 30 to 50 mph conditions. The rest is stop and go.
I recently changed oil from the 5W-30 Schaeffers Moly Pure Syn and switched to the 10W-30 Schaefffers Blend. I also changed plugs from the stock Platinums to the Bosch +4 Platinums (which are supposed to be inferior to the stock plugs). I changed plugs at 35 K miles.
In the last two tankfulls of what I would consider typical driving my milage was 30.1 and 30.4 mpg. Its not that I tried to get better milage bc I always drive to get good milage. And my wife puts on most of the milage on that car. It may too early to jump to conclusions. But if the milage is higher- Which gets the credit-plugs or oil or both.
Obviously-I wish I would have done things separately Plugs and oil changeout). I have a road trip planned for next month. The vehicle typically gets 33 to 36 mpg. Well have to wait until then
