UnitedMotorsport 55 Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 How do you drive? if thats normal driving, you have a problem!If you drive like a lunatic your dong quite well! Link to post Share on other sites
H19LNE 0 Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 If that is the mpg you are getting on long motorway drives then you have a problem but if its normall city driving where you are driving short trips and keep having to stop and start in traffic and also giving it the beans every now and again then it sounds normal.
