    Anyone fitted an alarm central locking system?

    Td5 air intake

    Cold air = more power (more oxygen per unit mass of air allowing more fuel to be burnt per revolution possibly explaining your economy decrease in the cold weather with ducted cold air) Warm air = better economy (for the inverse reason of above) Lots of older vehicles used to have jackets...
