300tdi MPG!
PITBULL:
what mpg r u guys gettin out of ur 300. I got my 300 about 2months ago and it'll only do 280miles on 73lt of fuel (17 something mpg!) why when i was gettin 30 out of my 200. It has a je eng stage 2 tune, bigger intercooler but not full size, 1 of those hiclone things or whatever they call them and the egr removed also got full internal cage, roof rack, heavy duty half shafts and cv's mach 5's with 33/12.5 but surely i should b gettin more?
discowoman:
well my 2 previous 300's (1 standard and 1 'tweaked' )struggled to hit 30mpg even when driven carefully....but to put things into perspective - hubby has done 423 miles today in a 53 plate Merc sprinter pick up - fully loaded and has used 71litres...so an average of 27.11 mpg..not bad seeing as he rarely dropped below 70mph :D:D
bilge rat:
the one in me avatar does 30 + ish. at's ,manual box. me toy is a 300 m/t's .manual. get a little less than that, prob about 25-27. put it down to the mud tyres. had a 200 used to get about 33-35 out of that. dont drive hard so that makes a difference, all me truck ive taken the egr off and tweeked the pumps slightly but to be honest didnt really alter mpg. alan.....
PITBULL:

2nd tank drove like a old lady 280 should i drive hard everywhere?

mine gets 24 around town. I'll be back after I've been to Tesco's when I'll be able to tell you what it got on a run up to Yorkshire at the w/e.
It's a non-modded 300 auto. Have n't yet checked to see if the EGR has been blocked.
