Last night I filled up to the brim with diesel and drove 112.7 miles home and filled up again. I used 15.9 litres for that journey. Now my working out gives about 32mpg.
The route i took was down the fosse way from Coventry to Trowbridge in Wiltshire, plus a few local miles. The car is a 3.0 CDTi signum manual on an 03 plate.
Does anyone have any ideas as to what would be giving me such poor mpg? The cruise was set at 60 mph for most of the route. Would it be because of the route, lots of hills and the odd town? I have no spanner light on, the car was serviced a couple of thousand miles ago. It doesn't bother me too much tbh, but was wondering if any other V6 diesel owners could shed some light on this?
Before any of you post, I'm not bothered that your 1.8/2.2/2.0t/3.2 v6 may or may not do better mpg :
many thanks
