Aye. Motorway will in most cases yield a higher MPG. I know the guy who used to own mine used to go from Yeovil to Newbury multiple times a week and got 35-37 lol! Something I dream of seeing.


VCDS Scanning/Coding, RNS and MDI retrofits, and specialist mechanics services with VAGtek available - Just PM me for details.

Definitely thirsty when cold so i don't boot it. Had a tuning remap done  with piper sports cat and full stainless exhaust.
Thought i'd get better mpg with a remap but unfortunately not, seems very heavy, wonder if this should be the case

30MPG on a decent run.. and thats not trying to get good MPG. If you want to I'm sure you can get close to 40 but you will have to be very carful with the accelerator  :happy2:

those figures sound good, should i be getting higher mpg on stage 1 performance tune, cause i sure am not? And thats with normal driving conditions, used to get good mpg before the remap and from the research done i thought better fuel eco after remap.
Any suggestions?

I reckon all your journeys must be downhill !
