following my previous post about this i fitted a new lambda sensor to my ek4 which solved the smoking issue but it has not improved my fuel consumpsion at all, im struggling to see 100miles to 20quids worth of v power no matter how i drive
its dropping as low as 50- 60miles-20quid if i use a fair bit of vtec(worst iv seen was 43miles to 20quid and it was cutting out in vtec due to lack of fuel) and no matter how gentle i am with my foot i cannot get more than 100-110miles out of 20quid(used to get about 130-140 no matter how i drove)i understand 25mpg aint to bad on a back road/town driving but it does not even improve on the motorway(average of 25mpg on a run to manchester and back at a steady 70mph)from ayrshire in scotland 500mile round trip
No codes are being shown and i reset the ecu by removing the fuse and disconnecting battery overnight after fitting the lambda sensor ,car gets oil and filter every 3k(mobil1 and a hamp)and has done since new(its on 145k) and a fuel filter every 10k burns a little oil(500ml per 1kmiles)car has an unbranded 4-1 oem vti centre section,custom stainless backbox and oem intake with resonators removed from wing so nothing wild.
due selling the ****ing thing and buying a golf gt tdi 150
please help
due going mental as its costing me a fortune to run it to work as its my dailly motor
