Better fuel economy

Postby KevofCov » Thu Apr 30, 2020 8:29 pm

My van is a 2016 2.2 RWD. It left the factory set at 125ps.
Power is pretty rubbish but I get by - fuel economy is King. I'm doing spaceship motorway mileages and the diesel comes out of my wallet. Even a small improvement means big savings £££. Has anybody had a retune and it improved mpg? Driving like a district nurse gets me 39mpg

I really don’t think that’s bad I’d say it’s good. 39mpg also depending on if the van is loaded

Its an average and I agree its ok - extra per gallon would be great though for my wallet
