thats a good range.
only had my 130tdi for 2 weeks and have only filled it to the top last week so i hope i get about the same to a tank but as its new to me i cant help putting my foot down when some little boy racer in his nova/saxo tries to over take the old git in his mk4 golf.

I been getting a poor 400ish most of the time, got it serviced and mapped and it went upto about 500 at best now it's dropped again.

I think I got a boost leak or some kinda problem with the car cuz my MPG is quite low and nothing shows up on scans ever :(

Some people have previously told me at a meet that they can get like 700 to the tank, is that a far fetched fairy tale?

Car is going in for a dyno diagnostic/logging session soon so fingers crossed this will diagnose the problem fully and sort my car out.

You'd expect that from a 59 plate car that is the same weight as a coke can :grin:
