Hi guys,
I have a 2017 1.4 TSI 125 Leon. Bought the car and soon (1-2 weeks after) noticed that my MPG was poor. Although I don’t regularly go on the motorway, around Town and to and from work (2-3 miles there and 2-3 miles back) it’s around 28MPG.
Furthermore to this, I have also bought a new spark plug as the garage said mine is on its way out and that this can impact fuel economy also?My friend said that some VAG’s have ACT (Active Cylinder Technology) and that this should help fuel. I’ve seen a post that says under the consumption tab it states something about an eco sign which is when you would know this feature is activated or not.
I can’t say I’ve ever seen this button so just wondering whether it’s common for these to be faulty and fail to activate or whether as a daily driver of the car you’d notice if it was on. Petrol wise, I tend to use 95 octane but will try a full tank on 97 or V Power and see if the difference is noticeable.
Any help regarding the above would be ideal regarding ACT and Spark Plug etc.
Thanks in advance.
