Hi
What MPG are you getting at 80 MPH on the dashboard? (i.e. probably a real, what 75MPH? according to the Sat-nav)
To be specific:
- If you're on a long journey - doing a journey of say 40+ minutes and you're on the motorway, and
- after say 5 or 10 minutes and you engine has warmed up nicely,
- there is no significant wind,
- the road is broadly flat,
- it's this time of year (March) in the UK (5-10 DegC)
- you're using premium quality fuel (e.g. BP Ultimate diesel).
- your driving a manual 2.2L i-DTEC
- you have no extra weight in the car
- you're car has recently been serviced
- you're using normal tyres (I ***ume the pressures where checked)
What MPG would you expect to get on the Honda's built in computer if you set the cruise control to exactly 80MPH? I'm getting about c.41-43 MPG in my 2.2L i-DTEC. Whereas I swear my i-CDTI got 50-53MPG! I've only had the car a few days so I havent managed to see how far a tank get.s
Do I have a problem or is this normal?
