Cupra tdi mpg - SEAT Cupra.net

*chillcupra* · 26-04-2007, 14:23

On a 150 mile trip on the motorway I struggled to get over 40mpg. I was doing between 80-90. By the end of the journey the computer recorded an average of 40.1mpg. I have never really seen above 45mpg even sitting for ages at 70. Its got a remap and full milltek. Do you guys go by the average on the trip. I realise that this builds up as the journey goes on. Do you lot reset your computer before each journey. What mpg do people get at around 80ish.

Thanks

*DIFT* · 26-04-2007, 16:27

80 ish you should be looking at 46-48mpg.

Thats what I get anyway.

*chillcupra* · 26-04-2007, 16:41

Do you get that aveage straight away after a few miles or does it gradually build up and peak at 46-48.

On the motorway doing between 70-110mph my cupra tdi (standard) does according to trip computer (average) between 47-52mpg this is over distances of 150-200 miles

i got 54 mpg doing a 260 mile trip at about 70-75.. for my commute to work (20 miles) i get about 47-50 doing 80

Pretty good really, tho my old 1.9 sport with a remap would do about 5mpg more in both situations... Cupras much more fun tho

*rashcupra* · 26-04-2007, 19:55

Is that what the little computer told you?

If you work it out, it often tells another story. You must of been getting just under 600 miles to your tank Rash!

*rashcupra* · 26-04-2007, 20:57

well if this kiddy derv's computer is reading 45+ mpg that means he must be doing 600miles to a tank

i blatently wasnt doing 600miles to the tank tho! be lucky to get 150-200miles to a full vented tank now

*Ad Lav* · 26-04-2007, 21:27

Not like my 60mpg on way back from santa pod then?

*rashcupra* · 26-04-2007, 21:43

*Ad Lav* · 26-04-2007, 21:45

I'm back down to 48 again now, bloody town work!

*justlivyalife* · 26-04-2007, 21:46

I average between 50 and 55mpg every tankful and get 500 miles to a tank max.

*air121005* · 26-04-2007, 22:16

i got an average in the high 50's when i travelled the length of the M5 and back a month ago!
sure i didn't drop below 90 there and back! (thats degrees celcius

)

usually really good on the motorway cruising, its the 17 mile A422 to work that really saps the MPG!

i have a heavy right foot addicted to torque!

FR TDI no remap (yet...) I usually only get about 360-380miles to a tank of derv.
But then I deliver pizza's (36-40mpg) at the weekend and drive to uni (38-47mpg depending on traffic) during the week so its either stop/start or in round the town over speed bumps.

And whenever I get out towards home I can usually knock 5-10mpg off the average.

*dozza.13* · 27-04-2007, 10:10

I rekon mine gives best mpg between 50-60mph under steady driving, have seen up to 60mpg, doing that! Tend to get bored pretty quickly tho, best I usually manage is just over 400 miles to a tank, have seen as low as 300 miles tho, when been seriously abusing it!
