The sad truth

Which uses more fuel........
Panzerkampfwagon replied to jcorallo's topic in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
It depends on too many factors. If the hill is sufficiently steep that the car can hold a given MPH with engine braking, the car will use less fuel than if you push in the clutch and let the engine idle. The engine uses no fuel when engine braking. It uses fuel when idling. Period. I guess the real point the hypermilers are always trying to make is that if you plan ahead and COAST TO A STOP instead of braking at the last minute, you save gas. Yes but remember they are not coasting with the engine idling, they are shutting the engine OFF. The idea is that you're not wasting any inertia. The original poster didn't say anything about turning the engine off and presumably he's not letting the car pick up speed so that it's exceeding any safe speed limit. Not to mention, the steering wheel lock might activate if the car is turned off?!?! Guess you'd better leave it in ACC whiles you're coasting 80mph downhill with no engine braking - so you can listen to the stereo, right? :rolleyes: -
One must never speak of the "Scrape". :eek: Ah, porsche-speak. ;)

OK, heres a little poll: If you're a tip owner, tell us: 1) How many miles your car has on it 2) Any tip problems 3) Your tip maintenance history I'm trying to correlate tip maintenance with tip failures. Thanks guys (and gals)!

Just wondered how many of you are kicking yourselves like I am about scraping the bottom of your Boxster's bumper. D**n parking lot elevation changes. :(
