Bloody cheapskate. It's people like you who make it hard for Fatboy to keep his job.
I am officially jealous.
5.1 is my best number so far on the auto Tourer. But much higher around town.
This is the best distance I've had from one tank of diesel in 186,000 kms of ownership.I'm not sure why the difference because the driving was exactly the same as usual.The trip computer was displaying 4.3 l/100 kms.
That is not a huge difference.4.3 for a diesel manual hatch to 5.1 for a diesel auto wagon.How many kms do you get out of a tank and what is the mix of metro/country driving?

TC is currently displaying 9.0!The figure above was on a Sydney to Jindabyne trip, hoping to best it in an upcoming trip to Eden.
Filled up today, seems I've been unfairly badmouthing my Tourer's economy when I should be angry at the trip computer instead. Display says ~9L/km, real consumption is 7.3L/km...
Someone else may be able to help here, or confirm this, but I think that if you disconnect the battery for an hour or say and reconnect, it resets the trip computer

Sorry for hijacking your thread, 1150km/tank is something to aim for.
The thing that impresses/depresses me is the price you paid for diesel.$1.119 = £0.66We pay twice that.
Im getting 1450k in the i40.Of course the tank is much bigger..... 5.4l/100 though I did crack 4.9 on a trip home from the ACT.
