mpg

lots of people have different claims to mpg and so on in their tdi 150s so just wondering how do you all drive Gear ---> speed 1st ---> 2nd ---> 3rd ---> 4th ---> 5th ---> 6th --->

I've got an 08 Leon FR TDi... 33k. 10 months old... I like to think the engine is worn in by now. Since the fuel prices have dropped a bit I've started using Shell Ultimate Diesel rather than just the cheapest in the area (helps work are paying most of it!) I think ive noticed a difference, a...

let my know guys

I was sat on the motorway today for about half an hour so thought I would see what MPG I could get so sat at 80mph and the best I got was 31.8mpg? I know the 8v gti's arent the most economical thing but should be better than that? As traffic slowed down I tried again but at 50mph and the best...

I know this may be a popular topic but I am possibly swapping my 150TDI for a LCR. I am currently getting 5-550 miles to a tank, filling every 2 weeks (!!) SO what does everybody get? Driving like a maniac = ? Driving like a granny all week = ? THANKS :D:p

My MPG meter on my trip computer is all over the place so i'm assuming its faulty. I've got vagcom. Does anyone know how i can sort this? I've done an autoscan and cleared any fault codes there were. Didn't notice anything to do with this though and its still reading all sorts of random figures...

I have learned to live with my average 41-42MPG from my FR TDI doing mostly motorway driving, but this last week its dropped to around 30-32 now that seems more than seasonal variation. I have checked the tires and always use millers and have no idea why it suddenly drop so low?

Why is it i can never get anywhere near the quoted MPG figures for my V5 150? I seem to get only 30-33mpg at a push on the motorway, when the quoted MPG for extra urban driving is 38. I have tested at constant speeds of 50, 55, and speeds between 60 and 70mph. If i go up a ever so slight...

Still enjoying my first week of owning the Cupra. But roughly how many miles do you guys get to the tank? The book guide recons it should be kicking out 56mpg but I dont think its anywhere near that (I dont have a heavy right foot btw) Also, does anyone else notice when the fuel gets to...

Just been checking my MFA MPG reading and its a bit highter that it realy is, first things first people how have MFA's how accurate do you thing the readings from it? also is there anyway to ajust it? I know on my old Mondeo there was a way to get into the settings and ajust it for a better...

Hi im looking to buy a LCR 225 (was looking for a fr to start with hence the name) and im just trying to work out if i can afford to run one what kind of miles per gallon do you guys get from your cars? Parkers say 32 which is only 6 less than my current car a fiesta st, i guess economy isn't...

hi i have a v5 toledo 1999 and am only getting 23mgp averaged arround town does this sound right ? whats every one getting ?

i have seen other cupra's with mpg display well only the diesal cupra's . does myn have this as there is another matrix display inmy dash but dosent seem to work? or dont it have it on my car

Hi all, I'm forever reading on here the crazy mpg figures people get. I drive a MK1 Leon Fr remapped. The highest I ever get is high 40's.It was similar before remapping... Is something wrong :shrug: :(

I thought i would do an MPG test on my way home from work Using shell v-power diesel. Miles = 27 (8 Town/Traffic and 20 on dual carriage way at 60mph) This is with the aircon in econ mode, radio on and head lights on. Before the remap i would get about 42MPG in these conditions.

What MPG are you getting from your mk5 1.4 sports? just asking as i think my display is playing up driving sensibly round town i was getting 28MPG shurely thats not right?

hey i have been thinkin about gettin a cupra for a while now but im wondering what sort of mpg should i expect to get it if i got 1? because i travel 52miles to college and only work part time so not sure what sort of money it would cost me to get there everyday any help would be much appreciated

Hey guys, I've been searching and cant quite put my finger on the problem... Today I topped up the coolant because it was 2-3mm below the MIN line, when the engine was warm. **I have a 1.9TDi Sport 130 2004 btw :)** A few weeks ago I noticed quite abit of steam come out from the...

Hi, I have a 2004 Seat Leon TDI 150 PD and These are the problems: 1) Almost no power below 2000 rpm, you can plant the pedal and the car doesn't speed up. After 2000 rpm you have to pull your tongue out of your throat. 2) My MPG has gone from 55 to 37. I have checked the timing...

I am thinking of retrofitting cruise control to my 1.8VT FR, however I was wondering if the car driving its self at a steady rate would provide better fuel economy than my foot driving at a reasonably steady rate. I'm talking motorway driving generally keeping under 3000rpm (~ 70mph). I...
