Hey everyone . Just scratching my head atm ..
Since friday my car has been using petrol like a v8 . I usually get 420km in traffic and 480 hwy . But i can literally watch the needed move driving 20km home from work

Im thinking its the fuel filter as its been there for about 80.000 i think .
Spark plugs are new and no leaks at all engine running like new

As soon as that fuel filter gives out it goes straight to a bypass so it will use a hell of a lot of fuel. Id say that's the first thing to look at man.
