The fuel consumption depends on fuel octane, how much air pressure in the tyres, wind direction and speed, your speed and acceleration etc. I have travelled over 1000kms on a tank a few times but only on solely highway driving. The old way to check is to fill up and note the mileage or set the trip meter, drive your trip and fill up again, note how much fuel you put in and the mileage again, this will give you how much fuel you actually used in the distance. With your reading of 8.2, maybe your tank can take more fuel to properly fill up.

Hi, I just replaced my rotors because of a vibration in the pedal when braking. An interesting instruction sheet accompanying the rotors says "Failure to properly clean the hub surface will result in disc rotor run out. ......The result of run out is DTV ( Disc Thickness variation ) which can occur in only a thousand kilometres resulting in pedal pulsation, vibration or knocking " And " When refitting wheel nuts, torque as per vehicle manufacture instructions. DO NOT use an impact gun as over tightening can distort the hub and rotor causing disc run out." I tighten the two screws that hold the rotor to the hub with a impact driver and spun the disc and it acted like it was buckled, I loosened them and retightened by hand and it ran strait.
