VW 2.0 115bhp.... Fuel Consumption / MPG
Discussion
Owned a VW Bora 2.0 for past 6 months.... if you own a VW 2.0 from around the same age bracket 99-03)appreciate any advise on :-
- Your av. MPG and under what driving conditiions ?
- or/and what mileage you getting from a full tank, and again under what driving conditions ?
- Also does it use oil ??
Appreciate any response.
* * * * * * * *
Oil consumption appear to be 1 litre per 1k-->1.5k miles or so, which I know is OK, but on revving engine appear to have black deposits on the ground even when engine hot...(like vapour deposits). Is this normal ?
Problem is Ive never been able to get my combined average fuel consumption over 21-22 MPG although this is comprised of motorway and short town stop-start runs, at very best it has been 26-28 purely comprising of motorway only 60-70 MPH changing gear at 2k revs on the way to get there.
Two visits have been made to garage, where car been rigged up to machines / computers and both nothing can be found to be wrong. Been serviced, and since changed the air filer.... only suggestion so far is in changing the lambda sensor.
