mine underpowered it only a pd100 but i get 480 as light comes on and that mixture of 20miles motorway then 23 b raods with return journey 6 days a week so it not bad but as said mine underpowered 150 pulls easier so would expect a bit more.

Who remapped it??? Could be a crap map mate, just injecting stupid amount of fuel??  :sad:

It's either his driving style or there's an underlying issue

Think Kerrse has an R-Tech remap  :undecided: If so its the same as Steve_PD's and he easily achieves over 500 miles to a tank; even with his dodgy pipework  :grin:

500+ is normally childs play, standard or not

Agreed, he should be easily achieving 550-600 to a tank, something not quite right unless theres a lead foot involved  :drool:

am with  u kersse.... tell me if theres somthing up with my car am running a full miltek r tech map on a 105k well looked after 150pd and now back to 16 inch montys

full tank usually 500 if mainly motorways (however i have got 550-600 drivign liek a old fart but usually 450-500)
if i cruise at 80 i get around 50mpg   ....(dunno how others get 55 60 mpg)
around town i usually get between 28-30mpg

20 quid around town at today diesel rate gives me around 130 miles (usually delivering pizzas so stop start etc etc )
 if i did the same on the motorway i wud probably get about 160
