Paddy78 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 My average went up from 16.3 to over 20 after the Wales weekend... It seems I need to drive to work much faster! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
un1eash Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 11mpg, 12mph average around town. They really don't like short trips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraziekatz1 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Mine seems to sit at 26.9 to 27.1 mpg regardless of how fast/hard I drive......was wondering if it was broken (!?). My 2.2l TDi Pug however managed a poorly 33.5 mpg on a Reading-Yeovil-Reading trip yesterday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Trouser Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Always around 25 for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilMH Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 This is a bit like Monty Python's 4 Yorkshiremen sketch: "You think that's bad.........." Or good...in this particular case Perhaps future postings should start with... "You think that's good (or bad)...." then the appropriate text e.g. "You think that's good - I drove from St Ives to Aberdeen and back, didn't fill up once and ended up with more petrol than I started with" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilogikal1 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 "You think that's good - you should see the other eleventy billion threads about MPG related 'achievements'..." I'm sure at least half of WhackyWill's post count is that picture. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UpRev does help with the MPG so you will get more out of a tank than a normal Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drginger Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 I reset my trip at every fill up and compared to working it out properly it's actually very accurate I find Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems I need to drive to work much faster! I reset mine before setting off to Wales, I checked when I got back home and had averaged 28.5, its usually under 20. I think that must mean I drive quicker back home (or that its all short journeys to and from work ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
