Drove from home to Stoke last night to pick up an old vw bug to restore. On the way down i was curious that the MPG never got better than 23.1 which made we wonder what was wrong, as i normally get better than that on combined,and this was a motorway run, cruise set at 70, no traffic. Got down...

wondering if someone who has a Nano can answer this. When you enter the BECM with the key in pos 1 or 2 do your fuel and temp gauges go all the way down,fuel light lit,and after a click from diagnostic connector message centre displays "diagnostic mode".Is this normal? Datatek is going to try...
