Weak MPG - F10 525d
Discussion
Just wondering if anyone else has this vehicle/engine? It's the later 2.0 twin turbo.
I'm getting a consistent 34mpg at the moment, which in my opinion is ste. I've put it down to maybe the cold weather, but am uncertain. It's only 3 years old and has done 36k.
I was hoping for at least 40mpg. I do about 20 miles daily, no stop/start traffic, all 40/50/70mph roads. This 34 is with careful driving in eco or comfort mode. It'll drop to 28/29 in sport mode with a hammering.
Is this normal?

I'm gonna put it down to short journey. The 20 miles commute is 10 miles each way.
I did a 380 mile round trip today on the motorway. Half of it was at about 80mph and the other half at 50mph average speed camera zones.
49mpg.
Cheers for the help anyway chaps, I'll just have to tolerate it.
