mpg

[villain24]

just went for a quick drive and the average fuel consumption on the partial setting just read 57mpg

 

[lukey]

so? if you drive really slowly you can make it says hundreds

 

[davels]

he said average not current MPG, thats pretty good goin considering recent threads about MPG

 

[lukey]

all depends how long its been set for etc, if you just reset it and go for a normal sensible drive it will say very high figures.
mine even after 3000 miles says about 52 if i get stuck behind a tractor it will go way into the 60s

 

[davels]

mine says 37

 

[lukey]

how? i rag the arse end off mine

 

[davels]

reset it in october, read about 42 after a couple of weeks, then just got worse, din't know why maybe winter diesel or the the replacment turbo bedding in? i dunno still better than my old 1.4 petrol,
and yes i too rag mine!
can't help it

 

[villain24]

thnx

davels for a sensible reply, unlike the other chap with the sarcastic so? at the start of his sentence

 

[lukey]

you know its also likely wrong

mine stays around 50, but it is a smaller engine and hence dont go really fast lol.

 

[gazjones]

2500 miles and mine says 31mpg

 

[justlivyalife]

2200 miles and 52 mpg average overall.

 

[Guinness]

think its to do with driving style as well.

 

[tommmineh]

I want an MPG calculator screen thing

 

[Adama]

Try a sustained 136mph for a few miles and it goes to 20 avg !!

 

[Guinness]

u not got 1?

 

[tommmineh]

Nope, mines an 03 plate 1.2, just got static screens with clock, temp, mileage, trip

 

[dasmith83]

i used to get 65mpg on a 20mile trip....since revo'd i struggle to get 45mpg on the same journey....then again, i can no longer granny it! its nearly impossible!

 

[mpm1987]
