So you put fuel in. This I have understood.

Oh and you always put fuel in, from the same garage.

Are you saying the car is using more fuel than usual?

How does your mpg compare to normal? How different is it?

[raznutz]

yes ive put fuel in from same p,station, and fuel consumption is around 27mpg.....

[rich83]

27mpg seems ok....   

[raznutz]

yes but it seems the fuel range goes down  quickly?

is there away i can reset it?

[skard]

Are you filling up small amounts to keep it out of the red, or full tanks?

[edd666999]

yes but it seems the fuel range goes down  quickly?

is there away i can reset it?

The "range" changes with your driving style.

Explain the problem in more detail.

right i always put £40 in and do normal driveing and the od foot down but not much,and i travel to b,ham to redditch every day.

[rich83]

And what's the problem? Try typing in full clear English so we can understand you. 

[edd666999]

I'm out.

So from what i can understand - Your MPG isn't what it used to be? You drive from Birmingham to Redditch and back each day, you fill up £40 worth from the same petrol station each time and you average 27 MPG

Hell i wish i averaged 27..

Is the car modified at all?

Try another petty station maybe? I notice better fuel economy with v power.

The range changes with your driving style. If you will floor it the range will go down. If you drive light footed it will go up again.

yes you are right but its the fuel range is concerning me.and its standard

[arris]

Drive your car less and the range will stay hi?

Or put more fuel in and the range will go up...

or buy a diesel...

ok thanks
