Hello,
Does anyone know what would cause me to be getting horrible gas mileage for the past few weeks. Normally I average around 28-30 mpg (I get this number from the onboard computer console thing in the radio). However the past 2 weeks I have been getting horrible gas mileage 22-23 mpg. This problem started after I got my car back from the dealer for the problem detailed here

Does anyone know what I can look into to find out what might be causing this problem? My tires are properly inflated and I don't let my car run for anymore than 1 minute to warm up. Plus I have been randomly resetting my mpg calculator and it always comes up with about the same average. I was thinking that when they replaced the battery control module they didn't program it right so there's not enough power going to the sparkplugs because the car seems much more sluggish than it was a month ago. I don't know, I'm planning on driving it for another week with a fresh tank of gas to see if that helps and if not I'm taking it back to the dealer, which will be the fifth time in 3 months. yuck!
Perhaps car’s don’t get the same gas mileage they do when it’s cold out (below 30) than they do when its warmer. I’m not sure since this is my first car with an mpg calculator in it. Please Help!
