All depends on driving style, weather, engine etc

it is low, I CAN get 42/43 out of my mapped 1.8t, but I average 37/39 daily, driving to and from work, about 40 miles each way. Alot less with a heavy right foot though :grin:

That does seem low mate  :undecided: Maybe it's as simple as a good service,  some trusty redex and some cleaning!

As above,  I'm hitting near enough 40 on my commute.

A good  service could improve it dramatically. Just done mine and its a definate improvement.

I am getting 23mpg average, I am hoping with the new lambda it is a little better.
