Road Trip

34-35mpg on my way to work in the morning(80mph, motorway, fairly heavy footed). 38+ on a long run. Haven't seen 40 on the trip computer yet but then, I don't drive light footed at all!

2.0 turbo petrol A3 with DSG.

54mpg average - 1.8TDi Mk1 Focus saloon overclocked slightly.

Not too shabby Do you service yours fully? Had two of those in the family, but they were neglected, and died fairly promptly.

First one, turbo grenaded the engine, I blamed that on a lack of oil+filter changes.

Second one, Engine would cut out on hills, under heavy load, over 70 on the motorway. I thought it was the fuel sender/pump. Would have been a simple fix, but they decided to chuck that one too.

In the early days it was serviced regularly and at a main dealer. Sadly the staff there changed over time and I stopped taking it there when they claimed a whole lot of work needed doing at a cost of around £1,100. I took it elsewhere with a list of things they'd said and guess what - Most of them were not required.

Now it gets the fluids changed at semi-regular intervals and a service at similar semi-regular intervals. It's rusty, very rusty in places (bottom of the doors, etc) but it's mechanically sound apart from that.

Almost managed to get a clear run to work last week. I caught one set of lights at the wrong time though

Can't complain with this though

Great to see decent fuel economy without having to go for a diesel

My old mk4 Golf 2.8 V6 4Motion showed 29mpg on the computer over approx 1000 miles when I sold it.

Mk6 Golf 2.0 GTI - 34 to 25mpg combined (up to 44mpg on a long run though).

Corrado 2.9 VR6 - Slightly more efficient than my 4motion so approx 31 to 32mpg but I tend to use it on longer journeys.

Since ditching the Octavia and changing workplace (no 7 mile start stop crawl every morning!) I'm in club 41-50 mpg in the wifes Grande Punto.... only just mind!

My Cooper S averages around 26.5mpg.

31MPG after a trip to London and back yesterday, I used to get 41-42 on the same trip - Just shows how much my driving style has changed from economy focused to CBA since starting walking to work!

I think the main cause is lack of cabin noise at speed, it's the same at 75, 85... Quite deceiving sometimes after a long stretch up the A3 looking forwards and I glance down at the needle

M1 and M25 doing my fuel eco a world of wonders!

 

[Frozennova]

Hello winter, goodbye fuel economey

 

[Simian]

It's been fluctuating a little recently... Must be because I'm using my Lights, Heaters and Washers/Wipers a lot more on my journeys to and from work!..



Still not bad for a 10 Year old 1.4 Civic though!

 

[Draeger]

What app is that, Simian?

Focus ST (300bhp) all driving done over journeys less then 10 miles and all around town, 22-23mpg
