Notices on my run to and from Cov that the mpg was much better at one point with it set to 65mph it was up to 35mpg. 8-). Even with a bit of sports mode fun on the way home it was still at 32pmg.

Would this be in part to the warmer weather we are having
Also drive a Savage 25 niro truck...and flys a Bell 47 twister Savage 46 ss and a Tamiya audi TT ..for now.

Warmer air = better fuel vapourisation, but I wouldn't take too much notice of what the computer says the car is returning in the MPG stakes.

Agreed. Best to brim the tank, run then brim again and calculate from mileage vs. litres :y

MID fuel computer can be adjusted with tech2, mine has proven quite reliable (on petrol), its only been 0.5 mpg out compared to manual calculations
