not so good I really feel for u! wouldn't like to try and run that all the time

Yeah will do that as needing fuel and see what mileage I get

Welcome

that is true but was just frustrating seeing everyone speaking about getting 37-40 mpg where I was struggling to get 30, but after giving it a service (oil, oil filter, air filter, crankcase fileter, turbo filter) and cleaning out inlet manifold and fitting a egr bypass its now getting between...

Will deff have a good think about it, as the extra mpg is quite tempting I probably wouldn't be too bothered but my last car a 1.9 octavia did 50mpg so I'm feeling it haha

I also just fitted the egr bypass and done a service, so I can just run it with it disconnected? Would that put on any lights on the dash?

Thank you for the info, where about is the temp sensor?

It's 2.0 td4 mate

Could do that and keep the origional incase it don't pass a mot thanx

Never knew you could get cleaner for them might try that,

Trying to work out if my maf sensor needs replaced but can't find a way to check, it's been a little hard on fuel and there is a tiny amount of black smoke in exhaust fumes, I did try unplugging it and running it round the block but I couldn't notice any difference in the way the motor ran? Is...

Thanx for the info a lot of good points to that box, will it really make that much of a difference in the mpg? That's amazing

How would I know if it was the maf sensor? No lights in dash and I did unplug it and toOk it round the block and it didn't seem to make any difference to when it is pluged in is that normal? It is the air flow meter the maf sensor isn't it? Haha

everyone keeps telling me that I should be getting atleast 37mpg but I just cant seem to manage lol hey ho if 30-31 mpg is all I can get that will have to do as more fun than my last car! been up a few dirt tracks and forest tracks that my last car wouldn't of made it near so its all good! haha

Service including oil change, oil, air crankcase and turbo filter also pollen filter (looked like never changed) and egr bypass. Also had to sort rear window as it wouldn't recalibrate as couldn't go all the way down as jamming on a cable inside the rear door that had came loose
