I got a 3 litre, did the same thing, till after a service, was getting only 750km a tank over the nullabor when I usually got 850, 900... on the way back for the third time I did a service and got all good stuff... economy went back up, only 50km a tank but a huge difference when your paying a little over $180 to fill up... dunno what causes it
You can't kill a 60... Believe me... I've tried...
In the end, you can... drive a gu now... still want a 60
