So how did it shoot up from 30 to 40? Just from drivin like an old granny or did you replace something?

I rarely get above 25, that's in both of my agus.

If you're doing this it's worth adding your average speed too

I'm currently averaging 24.8mpg on the total (number 2) with an average of 13mph  :cry:

Not sure. Went down mad mile. :evil: Mybe it needed a good flooring and cleaned itself out.
Yeah i had to drive slow after that ,in a 40 mph speed limit. Just hope it stay doing almost 40.0 mpg or better.
