I was at 23.1 before and now it's back up to 22.7 and I've only driven it maybe 200 miles since the upgrade and of course when you re-set the computer it's going to start out averaging from city driving.

I did notice that it got a little better with some time behind it.


But I really feel all the baby AT owners who complained about throttle response and kick down crap screwed those who had no issues at all...

Thanks bitches.
I religiously reset my MPG counter at every tank, and have driven 800-1000 miles since the "upgrade." Even on long trips I am nowhere near where I used to be. Maybe it's me compensating with my right foot, but either way I'm sure I'm still getting less MPG.

I didn't know that AT owners were the ones complaining about the rattle that spurred the 29.2 release. I'll take some phantom rattle ANY day over the Lag of Doom.
