2.0 mpg?
« on: 02 September 2008, 08:09:45 »

Is it auto or manual? I bet that makes a huge difference on a 2.0.

 :-/ I never thought to ask - it was at 6 this morning & I was only awake in body ..... not yet in mind  ;), but as he didn't specify one or t'other I'd guess it's a manual he's looking at.

I would think if it was auto it should get around 26mpg around town, and should achieve around 35-38 on a run, I get similar with a 2.2 petrol auto.

i get 35 in city and 44 in motorway

it s all depend on what kind of the driver you are

you dont have to drive slow for low MPG

good tyer-know about ur car-know ur break- CLEAN batterfly valve ...

and the bigest key to low MPG is full synth oil from mobile1 which cost

£46 in birmingham


 ((( all i said is my experience im nt warranty anything))
