poor MPG STILL... after changing so many parts

[rtechniki]

LOL

When your ready let me know, I will book you in for eco driver training and pump your tyes up. 





I will fully check the car out for you smoke test it and try another maf,    I can also do you a lean burn cruise map at the exact rpm, load TPS where your cruise speed is and see if we can end up getting your 80mph cruise upto 40mpg..

If you can do that get his car doing 40mpg at 80 mph ill be mighty impressed.  I'll also be arranging a trip to you even sooner!

I did a lean burn map on my old 1.8T which was just under 400bhp, and would do around 52mpg sitting at 75mph in 5th on the motorway.  I just found my cruise driving variables and then at them points in my map ran a lean spot and set map to run map pressure just over zero with strong timing in a window of 600rpm.  (not going to keep green EU nobs happy) 
   
Even just by having a full 1:1 linear throttle load map can return 3-4 mpg,  The Focus STs which I write maps for under HEX+ are seeing on average 50mile extra per tank just from a 1:1 throttle load map.

I never really looked in to eco stuff with Tfsi yet

Does lean burning send EGT's up on standard exhuast?

Mine still achives 40+mpg if i set cruise control at 70bhp 

If you can make it better than that, you'd be a hero

I dont have the image of the average MPG, but it was 51mpg. but i have the image of the trip of the tank from full to empty.

[GrayMK5GTI]

^^  great effort!

That must be a 40-60mph run surely, I only get averages like that going through 50mph sections on the motorway 

[jedi-knight83]

I hate you all.

Disconnected my MAF and initially I thought it made a good difference but on the 2nd trip with it disconnected it was just as bad as before.

Need to get over to Nick ASAP

[scopes]

How many MPG are you getting now?

[jedi-knight83]

How many MPG are you getting now?

got 28mpg over 60 miles of mixed driving when i first disconnected it

then 25mpg over 60 miles of 80mph driving on the way home.

[scopes]

I get about the same, havent been on a 60 mile drive at 70-80 for a wee while to compare 

Really hard to tell now the weather is so cold...

[zerolag]

Have you tested the MPG the old fashion way rather than rely on the computer?...

You can change the MPG output via VCDS if I remember rightly - can't remember the setting off the top of my head, but it's in there somewhere.

Esp. nice if you want to see better MPG whilst still hooning it.

[keano]

Don't know if this helps mate, but I get 38- 40mpg on my 50mile daily round trip  

Ps. That is barely touching the throttle though.

[geordie56]

Can i just say without it meaning to say bad, why buy a perfermance car and then chase mpg numbers? If thats what is really wanted go down the oil burner route and still get decent performance but a lot better mpg. Just my 2 pence worth.
