Hi all
OK i prob should of realised ages ago , but in my job i do courier work , ive been letting the engine run all the time ive been doing my deliverys , basically not switched off frm 10am til 2pm , ive been putting over 100 pounds a week diesel into the car an e320 cdi w210 .
Now this is becoming ridiculous , so as an experiment today i filled up ans decided to stop the engine at every drop , even if it was for a cpl of mins ,i want to find out just how much this is going to save me over the course of a week .
And actually i reckon it could be a no brainer , i finished today and my computer is saying ive only used half a gallon , i had 14.2 to start and i have 13.5 now , can anyone on here guesstimate how much a 320 il 6 would use idling for roughly 4 hrs ? just so i know , im just curious how much ive wasted in the past .
just to add my round i do is approx 20 miles driving in total 6 days a week
