mpg

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

Just collected my van from being converted to LPG and thought I should post some photos: The LPG fill nozzle is fitted where the Addblue one is on diesels. 1D884D61-D5D3-4374-83F0-3DD8FFC56701 by Shaun Witts posted 25 Mar 2019 at 18:36 The 84 litre tank replaces the spare wheel...

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...

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...

Hi all First long trip towing the caravan with 204ps swb kombi I am only getting 20mpg average in a 400 mile journey? Is this right ?

hi all, does anyone have all terrain tyres on their van? I love the look but am interested in how loud they are compared to smoother tyres and if there are any other draw backs people have encountered, thanks

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?

All, I keep getting this random warning light nearly once a week... It's only since I had it remapped by Pendle a few weeks back..... It's happening more often than before but the strange thing is the range I'm now getting out the van :thumbsdown: Once I've filled her up with Shell...

Nearly got caught out whilst towing caravan, MFD showed 5 miles range left ... pump knocked off at 79.87lt and manged a couple more litres when filling. Question is how accurate is the range remaining and any serious consequence or damage from running out apart from inconvenience! If it makes a...

Have solved the mystery of the actual size of my fuel tank by running it down to zero on the computer and then filling to the brim with 78.26 ltrs , as I believe some people have discovered in the past you can run down to below zero, this suggests a one and three quarter litres reserve in an 80...

Hello and good evening all I have just bought a 2016 kombi 4 motion starlight blue dsg, any ideas of real mpg ?

Hello folks Now,I am not the brightest but....when my van is showing nearly empty & I have 20/30 miles range left,why does it only take 50 ltrs or so to fill the 70 ltrs tank. I assume that the gauge is reading wrong or have I somehow got one with a smaller tank. The mpg is around 29 on average...

morning guys, a bit of geeky question! Since having my van serviced the current consumption has gone all over place saying 15mpg-200mpg in seconds when even going at the same revs. It didn’t do this before and the main reason i liked it as it would be some indication of when a regen is in...

MPG + Fuel Economy - What Mine Does - MPG and fuel economy is a constant hot topic with today's fuel prices. its important to remember that a lot of factors effect the MPG. Extra Weight, Extra Load, wind resistance from roof boxes and bars can all effect the outcome. Driving style and...
