2007 Boxster 987 3.4s manual - poor fuel consumption.

Top down on the motorway, cruise on,70mph, but only getting 22mpg. Seems a bit low? I"m a new owner, but thought I'd get better than that!

I'll take a better sample over the weekend, but its a bit alarming given that I'm off to France in a few weeks on a 2500 mile multi venue jaunt....

On the plus side, its a lovely car, goes like stink.

Yes, reset the fuel average display.

Chapping?

Been really pootling about today,- A roads, b roads, driving very sedately with the odd squirt of beans. 19.5 mpg. Somethings not right, but wonder what it could be?

Not checked the MAF sensor, but air filter has only done about 7k. CEL hasn't been on, but I did have the AOS changed before I bought it, so its possible the MAF is oiled up. Thought cleaning of them was generally ineffective.
