My 2013 GU Patrol 3.00 L intercooled turbo has done about 93 000 kilometres.
I believe that the distance covered per twin tanks of 125 litres has dropped from about 1 100 kilometres to below 1 000 kilometres with no difference in the type of driving.
I have put in a new air filter and used Comey's injector cleaner with no difference to consumption. Mechanic has discovered that the intercooler is leaking as is the turbo gasket.
Any suggestions as to what might be the cause and will the leaking intercooler and the leaking turbo gasket account for this apparent drop?
Appreciatively,
Peter Schellolepsis.
