E 280 CDI consumption

[Norse]

Hi.

I was testing the fuel consumption on my car this weekend. I had it tuned last week, and was curious on how the consumption was compared to earlier.
I have the straight 6, 3,2 litre engine, and the lowest consumption I got was: 5.8 liters/100 km = 48.7036097 miles/gallon(UK)

Not bad IMHO

You have a straight 6, 3.2L engine, badged 280? That's interesting, I don't think we ever got that in the UK.

There is a 280CDi now, but it's the 3.0L V6 engine (same as the 320CDi).

Yes, that's correct. I think the V6 came in 2006. This is also the same engine as the old 320's, but downgraded in power. (177hp and 425Nm).
Now after the tune it is supposed to be 225+ hp and 500+ Nm.
I like it a lot..
