On my run to work on normal roads I nearly always get 33 mpg, Very rare ends up below 30 mpg, Thats on a 9 mile journey

30 on average on a steady run, worst i have seen is 12 beasting a audi a4 the other day!!!! , can get it to 36 driving old man style

Low 40s taking it easy.. Average mid 30's.. I think you need to check your map out mate sounds terrible

You do realise after a turbo or map change, your mpg on the OBC means nothing anymore....... Mine says 18 or lower but clearly it's not quite that bad

[prowler]

no i didnt no that. but it cant be that far out can it???

[vwfiend]

Beat way is for you to run your car outta fuel with a gallon in the boot, put that in and see if you travel more than 4 miles! Clearly you will unless you've got a crazy displacement. Odds are on that you'll do more than 18....... The computer is fairly crap. I've got mine to read 48 mpg if I drive carefully but again that's wrong. I asked nick at rtec when I got my spec 2 and he said the OBC reading goes outta the window with the map and turbo etc

Well how many miles from a tank ??

[vwfiend]

I get 270 when I Pune about or a out 330 if I'm drivin like miss daisy. I'd rather get 60 leas and enjoy the boost though.......
