mpg

Hi, I have a c270 cdi which I often drive about 250 miles weekly up and down the m6. The computer readout reads between 52 and 56 mpg average which to me seems very good. However, if I work out fuel consumption the old fashioned way, tank to tank, I'm working out the consumption at being around...

Hi New owner of S350 CDI and a little surprised at the mpg I am returning - around town getting just on / around 30 and a recent motorway drive of 150 odd mies at sensible speeds returned 43 mpg - am I about average? What should I consider doing to obtain max mpg - specialist tune up or...

Hello everyone, I have arrived here courtesy of a red 220 cdi sport estate. I am very impressed with it. With 150k on the clock it runs as smooth as my V70 diesel did at 35k when I said good bye to that. My wife passed away last year just as we were taking delivery of an XC60 and apart from the...

Got an issue with my wife w163 ml350, The range on the tank is about 200miles in normal driving within london before the light come on, calculating it online come out at about 13mpg which is very low. I know city driving drops the mpg a bit, but this is worse than our v8 5.7 hemi dodge ram...

I am after a real world mpg figure for both please, it's a vehicle that will be used to tow a heavy un aero dynamic trailer / load , I was kind of hoping the v8 could be justified as a "more suitable" and "less stressed whilst towing" vehicle that would return similar mpg under this circumstance...

Hi forum I've been reading this forum for a while. First Merc was a 03 W203 220 then 09 W204 220 and recently changed to a S204 220 Amg Sport Plus. Love it. Such increase in luxury from my previous 220 amg. When purchasing the salesman stated I should see a big increase in mpg over my...

Hi all I have just bought a 2012 E Class for work use, I had a company car but opted out as the tax was crippling me and I get a car allowance. I used to own a C Class which was unbelievable on fuel. I opted for the E Class as I like the bigger car but I am shocked at the MPG on it! Urban...

Hello Mercedes owners, Im looking to buy the car in the title and have a few questions which I haven't had a conclusive answer on. 1. What mpg can i expect locally? 2. what mpg can i expect on a run at 70 or 80 mph? 3. what is the real combined figure? Im swapping from a mk5 GTI, so I need an...

hi guys,the computer on my 2000 e320 cdi is saying 41mpg and thats just local work,is this quite accurate,i know the best way is to brim the car but at the moment im unable to do that.

I have a Dec 2012 W204 C220 CDi Executive SE Blue Efficiency. My problem is trivial but I have been unable to find a solution. There is an instantaneous MPG meter together with a remaining range which displays on the speedometer, which only seems to go to 40 MPG. And there is a bar graph...

Got a mate's C220 for a week on a test drive while he's away. One question I have is on the screen where it says "From Reset" and "From Start" the MPG on display doesn't adjust in jumps of 0.1 sometimes it can be 1.1 or 1.2 etc, the other day after I'd travelled over 200 miles the screen was...

Hi, Does anyone have any experience to share about whether post facelift C63's (edition 125 onwards) are any better or worse wrt city MPG compared to earlier C63's? I understand the facelift cars had some mechanical changes and this gave some small improvement in this area. Cheers Steve
