Well, it answers one question anyway - one of ours (at least) is not behaving normally, unless they changed from '12 to '13. Hopefully others here (with a CVT) can give us some more data points here.

I really hated the engine braking at first but have gotten used to it. It makes sense for maintaining a set speed without having to stab the brakes as often. Eco driving 101, if you have to use the brakes, you lose. |

Interesting - Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's three of six that work each way - three (Webster, Lympho, and Guzzi) hold while giving it gas going uphill for "half a minute(?) or so", and three (hemo, John 451, and me) go back immediately to drive. When going downhill and compression braking, the first three will go to D when the speed stabilizes, three will hold in the paddled gear.
What's up with that? |

Filled up today... 358.1 / 12.502 = 28.64mpg AVG speed was 36mph. Another dissapointing tank. Car never went above 4k rpm, or above 70mph, no hard accel, super boring driving bye the way, and as usual same commute. It is higher than this.. but for discussion sake, 75% highway - One would think that the MPG should be higher than this, I do!!!

Lol at least mine doesnt burn oil AND get crappy mpg's...
My driving is 75% around town, not a super busy city, but a town of around 50-60k people... my average mph is waaay lower than yours and with my 5mt and not totally driving like a church lady, I easily get 32-33 average mpg.... one good aspect of the car |

I drive faster on the highway so I can sit in the left lane, and I pay for it with the mileage going down, but if I drove slower, I'd spend more time adjusting my speed and probably do worse MPG-wise. If you want super awesome highway MPG, set the cruise for 5 under and sit in the right lane...but ain't nobody got time for that. |

Amazing how people with an MT will not only monitor but post advice on a CVT thread...

Last 3 tank were 30.1, 31.5 and 32.4 mpg. Once the winter tires come off and summer gas back in thetank i see no problem with beating the epa numbers.

Really, another tool, Why would you post that.. I am being honest and sharing my data... I have never, repeat never driven this car like a performance car or with a lead foot since new you clown. You have obviously not read any of my posts on how I have been trying to achieve the highest MPG's I can from this car. Just DONT

I was doing better with my other cars on same test sample. The only variable that changed was the car. It is beyond frustrating. Not just here to complain, but there is a problem, just want to find if out if others are experiencing same and to find a resolution. Bought car b/c based upon MPG claims felt was going to improve overall situation. Def finding out the hard way, this is not the case. Some of you may not understand or believe, but it is real. |

In the fuelly.com database we have :
http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show...5&postcount=35 (thanks to BigFatHorse for some real numbers) With the CVT, less than 20% are getting the combined mpg (30 mpg), but over half of the MT's do (28 mpg). |

Overall though I do have to say that I didn't expect more than the 27.4 I'm averaging so far but it will be nice to watch it go up just a bit with summer gas and warmer temperatures. |

Side note, I turned off auto climate control today and it seems to improve my fuel economy by ~9%. More testing to come. |

I think the 5-speeds get better mpg there too compared to what is posted as the EPA highway figure. How does one download the database for a model? It would be interesting to see the difference between the 5-speed and the automatic. Fuelly shows a double hump (at least) curve for that year, the two major peaks are at 29 and 32, with minor peaks up higher than that - I'll bet the major peaks are auto and 5-speed though.

I have a sport limited crv. If I drive 55 with cruise control and no one else in the car, I get 37 mpg. Add adults, cargo, drive faster, etc and it plummets.
