RE: FAO Fooby - Poodle - 04-12-2012
I'm talking 3 miles with a couple of hours between trips, engine didn't warm up once all week. Tbh that sounds like your "eco" driving style is just a bit shit lol.

Maybe your raccoon filter is fluffed up beyond the workable limit?

3 miles? You could bloody walk that!
Nah I never do trips that short lol. My idea of a short trip is Nans and back - 10 miles.The problem with my Eco driving is that I tuned it to the Golf, using the mpg calculator in the dash, although not totally accurate it did show where I was using more fuel, in some really odd places. And I use the same techniques/speeds with the HDi but with no mpg calculator I can't tell if its working at all!!
But then even with the Golf I'd average the same over the fortnight/tankful, 60-65mpg everytime, even if I'd been for a hoon with Rowell during the week, I'd make up that mpg later on. Because I can't go two weeks driving carefully lol, theres always the time you're late or theres someone that needs taught that NSL roads can be driven at more than 25mph lol.

Mine too, Over 60mpg on the motorway, 50mpg average and only costing about £4 a gallon anyway plus its EPICLY FAST (for a shit box)
Tom you need to stop worrying, just decide that as long as your getting over 50mpg that its alright.
