Thing is, I'm getting lower MPG even when I change into 7th manually on the motorway! As in to say, it's not the only cause of decreased MPG.

Well done.Sat I the readership at the moment. Service sheet came out and i was asked to sign to approve work.
On it was the diesel software update, I said I didn't want that, she just put a line through it and wrote "customer declined"
It will be interesting to see if the car drives differently or returns different mpg figures after the service ....Sat I the readership at the moment. Service sheet came out and i was asked to sign to approve work.

I warned you guys in Feb if it isn't on the DVSA site it's not compulsory in this country.Pretty pissed off at the MBUK customer services person who insisted that the update was not voluntary (i.e. that it was possible to opt out), after I complained to them.

I know what you mean......... I don't trust them either.
The mileage counter/average mpg etc. has been reset, but I guess they disconnected battery before carrying out the planned work.
What I might do, is give it a few weeks, and call up MB to see if there's any recalls outstanding and see if they mention the diesel update like they did with the steering column when they both were last month.
The ~30 mile drive home was seemed normal though.
Did you reset before or after the update?But mine had the software update but they didn't reset anything. I reset the trip computer myself so that I could see if the MPG dropped (which it did).

You will be charged for any update that you ask the dealer to carry-out.Should I have been charged £90 + vat for this update to have been done ?
