mpg

On a long trip today about 300 miles. Doing well showing 46.3 MPG but suddenly went from approx range of 230 miles to 98 miles range 96,94,88,80,75 etc fearing a fuel leak i pulled over noleak. Put 25 litres into tank all good about 250 miles then very up and down. Any ideas??

Hi All this is my first post though I have been and avid reader since I bought my MB around 18 months ago. I have searched through the posts looking for potential solutions but nothing is really jumping out at me. I have had my car, a 2012 W204 C200 CDI 7G Auto Estate for about 18...

Has anybody got a a45 amg as i was considering getting one and was wondering what mpg you get if you drive it sensible , i know its a daft question really as its a performance car and you can't have everything but the manufactures figures say you can get up to 40mpg which i know is probably not...

hi everyone just wanted to pick your collective brains. I bought my e350 cdi coupe in the summer lovely car but I'm not too happy with the mpg. previous owner had it remapped at Avon tuning Bristol area, car drives fine [ do get an occasional delay between throttle and pulling out but think...

Hi All, I'm a few weeks in with a 14 plate E250. I just wanted to check what I should be getting MPG wise. Around town (lots of stop start) currently getting around 33 mpg if I leave it in Eco with stop start around 34.5mpg On motorway run average around 48 MPG not unhappy with this just...

Interested to know what MPG owners are getting with their C43's especially the Estate.

C 180 W204 Petrol (1.8) - It's been more than a month I have been driving it and to find out exact MPG figures I noted down mileage when filling up full tank and just today filled it again full tank. It did about 350 Miles in about 11.5 Gallons, comes out roughly 30 MPG. Most of my drive was to...

Hi there, I've just picked up my 1999 W202 (in C200 flavour) and notice it hsa no trip computer / instant MPG. Perhaps I will have to fit something myself. I've had a read around here and it seems there is no OBDII / EOBD interface on the 1999 car. As I understand it OBDII compatibility came...

So ive just got back from the annual pilgrimage and as always ive recorded every drop of fuel used. The car was loaded, and i do mean loaded. Large roof box plus two bikes up top and i would estimate it was carrying the weight equivalent to 6+ adults :crazy: Once we were at our destination...

Hi, does my fuel consumption sound ok. I just want to be sure its not lower than normal. I have the 7g autobox, 2007 e280 cdi sport saloon with 124k. I reset the fuel consumption gauge whilst already on the motorway, so this is just cruising at an average of 62mpg, over 75 miles it averaged...

Return trip Spain/ France /England en route Bordeaux/Calais. 2nd day. I think these figures are very good when you consider the average speeds showing, excellent 9th gear low reving V 6 engine, so smooth, so easy. :thumb:

Hi guys/gals Not sure if this is the right section, but a quick question about 'claimed' MPG figures. I have a e250 cdi coupe auto (2009) with the 5 speed auto. Anyway the fuel figures were amazing on paper ( far better than my X type Jaguar Diesel). However after a couple of months now, I am...

Just used the 1st tank in the wife's slk200k(2009) and was shocked to see the car had only averaged 22mpg(brim to brim,obd showed 23.7 mpg).Car had a b service,ATF/filter change,plugs,brake fluid,air filter,pollen filter,coolant,tyre pressures checked and ok,tyres new all round and tracking...

Guys having owned a w208 and running this for nearly a year I have had a return of 25ish mpg ... Leap to today sitting on my drive is my new toy a silver sl500 r230 what are you guys getting as a return on mpg with these beasts ? I am thinking it is bound to be 15-20 I am not to worried my Benz...

Hi All Was just wondering if any E250 owners have ever done a MPG comparison between economy vs sport mode and noticed much difference. S mode feels much better, I believe i'm getting 3-5MPG less in sport mode but its hard to compare as the temp and traffic patterns also seem to vary.. Thanks

Just as I was starting to think that I would never live to see the day that my V6 320CDi would do more than 33mpg, today I got a new pb of 36mpg by the end of my journey and a peak of 36.3mpg! Yes, I was driving quite conservatively, but I was going at the speed limit (honest officer) and...

While I knew these cars were economical I just did 650 miles on a tankful and I was making sure all the horses were working hard. I am most impressed:bannana:

Hi all, I bought my car about 2 weeks ago (before that I had been borrowing my dads car) and I'm extremely pleased about it. The body work is great and the car runs well. The only thing I've noticed is that the mpg on long motorway runs is slightly worse than my dads car, which is a 52 plate...
