Keep RPMS under 2K and stay off the boost. Slower starts and coast to a stop light.

Avoid city traffic.

Truck comes in at 8K hard to get that mass up to speed and not drink a little.

That is terrible , before I was tuned and deleted I was getting between 19 and 22L per 100km,, now I'm averaging 17L per 100km. Are you stuck in regen maybe?
