  4. MPG Query

    So, when accelerating through gears 1 - 2 - 3, is it normal for MPG to register between 9/15 when hitting the 3000 rev mark? I ask because i'm not used to having a higher powered car and it just seems like a lot of fuel to go through. It's a 2.0 TDI 170

    What sort of mpg are you LCR 210 drivers getting? Looking at getting one but the only thing holding me back is the fuel consumption. I live in Bucks so plenty of hills to climb every time i go out. Anyone have a similar situation, and if so what sort of fuel economy is your car doing atm? i have...

    Remapping gives increased MPG ? " true? "

    After reading lots of posts where people have noticed an increase in MPG after a remap, I wondered if this was due to more torque and the need to rev less and shift earlier giving the same driving experience? Or are those of you who claim this increased mpg seeing the same results when...

    Poor MPG in rain?

    Has anyone experienced poor MPG in the rain or am I going mad? I drove to work yesterday in my Cupra TDI in the dry and averaged 55+ mpg, this morning drove the same (but in rain) and did 10mpg less!! :shrug: Is this due to larger wheels to my 16" FS wheels or am I being a complete numpty and...

    LCR illogical MPG?

    Having a bit of head-scratch re my LCR’s touring mpg, wonder if you folks have any suggestions? :headhurt: Bought the car – a ’03 210, 45k, 1 owner, fSsh, standard map – in June ’08. At first, its touring/motorway mpg was 34-36 when cruising at a steady 85-90mph (ie 3250-3500rpm in...

    remap that improves mpg too?

    Is there a remap that is proven to improve mpg without doing damage to the car? I'm getting an average of 54 but ive heard there may be a way to get faster and still have better mpg?

    Bigger wheels - reduced MPG and performance?

    I fitted some 19's at the weekend, and since then I've not been achieving as high an MPG than with the 18's fitted...is this normal? The rolling radius is only 1.55% difference, as the tyres have changed from 225/40/18 to 235/35/19. And I'm not sure if it's just my imagination, but it feels...

    wow, 60.4 mpg average!

    This may be normal, but just got back from a 50 mile round trip and averaged 60.4 mpg in my ibiza 1.9 tdi! That's amazing! (imo). Is this the highest it will get or does anyone get higher?
  19. slight loss of power and lower MPG?

    Hi all I've got a 54 plate Ibiza Cupra TDI; completely standard. It seems to me to be slightly less responsive the last couple of weeks, on initial throttle movement in particular, turbo maybe coming in slightly later. Still goes very well at higher RPM but sometimes having to come down a...
