    THE VX Calais weighs 1620kg, 220kg more than your VN Calais. This will certainly have an adverse effect on fuel consumption. Also, the ECOTEC V6 engine produces 152kW, whereas your VN put out 127kW. So the extra power is coming at the expense of fuel consumption. Perhaps other readers can let us know what they're getting from their VX models to compare with yours, but I reckon what you're getting is about on the mark.

    I'M NOT aware that it is a legal requirement the windows should operate, but it is a safety issue. Having windows that won't lower could mean getting stuck in a car and being unable to get out in a crash. Try another auto electrician. It sounds as if there is a deeper problem.
