mpg

Just considering lowering my new girl and a question popped up….. does it decrease mpg

Just wondering if anyone knows what mpg you are getting from a T6.1 199ps 4 motion. Thanks.

So, after collecting our new T6.1 at start of lockdown, other than having a chance to have a good look over it and sort a few things out, haven’t actually been anywhere in it. So, today had to deliver a pair of speakers to someone approx 60 miles from where we live. so, filled it right up, set...

In March 2020 finally got the long-awaited ECU (Engine Control Unit) software update. Unfortunately it took a while to get a good chance to do some measurements to try to figure out what has been changed. So finally a few weeks back dusted the VCDS and collected all kind of intriguing data. The...

Last week I had my T6 serviced, new brakes all round but nothing else special was done to it. On Saturday and Sunday I drove to Leicester for work, down the M1, foggy so took it easy, no head wind, no rush, and the week before same journey, 41mpg, and I would have expected the same or better...

The T6.1 kombi 150bhp pretty good stats on a long journey

So I’ve had the 300ish hp TSI lpg converted about 10,000 miles ago. £29 to fill lpg tank (53ppl) did 270 miles today on that tank. Averages generally between 230and 255 miles depending how and where I drive. Best mod ever!

Hi all. Would value your opinions / comments. 2 weeks in to ownership now and love it - except the fuel economy. Mixed driving - when on a motorway cruise is set to 70. Otherwise gentle driving with a light right foot. Just filled up and worked out my mpg - 26! 2019 Shuttle, 102 5 speed...

On my drive to Czech, through Germany, discovered two things: 1. Adaptive cruise control only goes up to 100mph... 2. The van drives very well at 120mph... Additionally, got 475 miles out of the 80 litre tank driving at silly speeds - mostly between 80 and 95. Have to say the Van was fairly...

Good morning everyone,i have just collected my van from vw preston after the engine management light came on the dash.I havent owned the van long at all,in fact only really driven it back from the garage that i purchased it from (100 miles away) around the town a handful of times times then one...

A year back, I was touring Spain in my (then) T6 camper. It developed anEGR fault that was splendidly dealt with under warranty by aN excellent Spanish VW dealer. The unofficial advice from the tech was “Don’t ever use cheap fuel, and that I should try to always use Shell V power diesel As was...

Hi guys, Help needed, only had my T6 for a couple of months now. I bought it from Leighton Vans and it has had some modifications 20inch wheels, side bars, roof bars and a Pendle remap to take it to 150bhp. My fuel consumption is horrendous currently getting 21mpg around town and them...

Just wondering what people are getting? I have a T6.1 199bhp dsg and I’m getting around 35-38 mpg and over 500 miles between fill ups, mainly A-roads and motorway driving.

Evening all. I just filled up my LWB Euro 5 (140) Kombi and have the following on the MFD: Maybe that should be the next challenge! After a few weeks of traffic free commuting I have managed 740 miles from 77.3 litres with 15 miles range left although I expect that could have been more...

Hi all, What are the simplest and cheapest modifications I can make that will improve fuel efficiency? I have a 2015 T6 shuttle DSG, any suggestions would be gratefully received. Thank you, Wes

Hi, anyone gone from a 150/204 manual to DSG 150/204 or vice versa & found any noticeable difference in mpg? Nothing to do with what’s on the mfd vs real mpg...just a simple comparison if you have driven both comparable vehicles for any amount of time. My mate is experiencing 25% extra fuel...

I have been surprised today. I travelled over 380 miles today from Sussex to Holyhead in my Caravelle Executive and averaged 41.5 MPG. And that is with a Revo tune on a 150 DSG. Very pleased with that.

Hi guys, I’m new to the VW scene and if I’m honest I’m gutted. I have a 150ps 2016 Kombi and once I fill the tank up from red £80 I’m getting if I’m lucky 330 miles before I’m back in the red again. The chap I brought it off and a local transporter specialist to me have both said to get it in...

Hi All, Weighing up my options on my wheels at the moment and am looking for inspiration. Not a real low down type of guy, have more of an all weather, rugged preference.. I have looked here, Off Road Tyre Mpg, and the Michelin Latitude cross sound good but i need more input! My wants from...

I have just had fitted some wolfrace wheels with general grabber tyres along with a few other bits and bobs and my MPG has plummeted!! I’m a proper fairy foot and was getting 43-47mpg on a run, now I struggle to get past 33-34mpg? Can this be purely down to the tyres/wheels?
