Ive gone through 5 tanks of gas. tires are 265-65-17 with similar tread, nothing really aggressive. Last 2 winters I averaged in the mid 18 mpg. Whats odd is when 4wd auto is used my mpg would drop to the mid 17 mpg , now I get slightly better fuel economy in 4wd than than in 2wd. Thats why this is driving me crazy. During the repairs the nissan shop they used to replace the tpms sensors in one of the wheels didn't calibrate all sensors and it had to go back for calibration and they replaced some sensor in the steering column. I wondered if they may have inadvertantly changed some ecm program hat would affect fuel economy. I'm putting out on a couple forums before I take it to a dealer just in hopes of finding a possible cause.
