Creaking in the suspension is some bushing/tie rod end/etc...most likely. You should easily be able to top 20mpg highway, 17ish city. |
Well I didnt time it or anything. I figure the cat might be done for or something like that.
It looks like we got 190 miles to half tank..so around 18.5-19mpg with the AC on..
My seat-of-the-pants meter says my 190E 3.0 has more acceleration.
