mpg

Hi all, This is my first post here - so I apologise if it’s in the wrong place. I recently (July) bought an A180 AMG and I absolutely adore it. The only problem is that I’ve noticed I’m getting really poor MPG. I spent 4 hours driving on the motorway(comfort mode, cruise control on at a...

Hi everyone. First time posting as I’ve recently bought a 2020 CLA 220d. I’ve noticed a few times that when I’m driving the MPG will just suddenly tank. It’ll drop from 60-65 on the motorway to about 30. I’ve also noticed that during these times, the fuel consumption meter won’t read ‘charging’...

Hello again Guys/girls. I have had my c180 2004 kompressor now for over 1 year and have always noticed it had been quite a thirsty car on fuel but lately its getting considerably worse. I am getting aroung 20mpg around my city and not much better when i was on the motor way yesterday. I am...

Hi everyone, I'm new here, so please go easy on me haha. I'm looking into purchasing a 2016 Mercedes C Class Coupe. Obviously what Mercedes tell you about MPG is normally far off real world performance. Does anyone own a C250 or C300 and could tell me what MPG you get please? Ideally i would...

Hi all, I changed the oil and filter out of my C class last week. On resetting the service indicator it asked me to advice what quality of oil i had put in, it offered 3 qualitys, "normal" (i think), 229.3 or 229.5. I selected 229.5 as that was the spec added on the change. To my suprise on...

Hi, I have a 2003 ML500 with a Petrol/LPG conversion. As a newbie I have a few questions for those more knowledgeable than I ! She seems to drive fine to me, but as I've got no comparison it's difficult to tell. My previous car was an SLK 230 and I do drive with a light right foot 95% of the...

Hi, I have a c270 cdi which I often drive about 250 miles weekly up and down the m6. The computer readout reads between 52 and 56 mpg average which to me seems very good. However, if I work out fuel consumption the old fashioned way, tank to tank, I'm working out the consumption at being around...

Ive had my S210 since early last year, when i first got it my best was 51 mpg on a long trip. it would shoot up to 40+ atleast easily on a not so long motorway commute. and easily 35-40 around town. Nowdays im honestly struggling to break 35 on the motorway with a feather foot, i hit 40 on a...

I've only had my E320 for just under 2 weeks - I'm finding the fuel economy, or lack thereof, to be a bit of a concern. I seem to be getting around 26 on short trips (around 3-4 miles in traffic) and just over 30 on a country road run. Coming from an Accord diesel that was capable of over 60mpg...

Firstly a hi to everyone and to to say that I love the forum and have read mountains of info already. Wasted the first 40yrs of my life not owning a Merc but have rectified that and have a 99 Clk320 W208. I love it and will be owning more no doubt/with any luck! BUT Here are the niggles...

Have a E220CDi Avantgarde. Looking into how I can improve fuel economy - after doing all the usual things. Firstly - has anyone any experience of CHIP TUNING Diesel Boxes - which cost between 60-100 pounds - supposedly very easy to fit and give a 20%increase in BHP and Torque and around 15%...

Evening all, I have a 2002 ML270 which I have had the smooth running values of the injectors checked and they are well within values (+/- 0.5) on all injectors. I still have an issue where it can be a little difficult to start when hot, so I am having an injector leak off test performed...

I'm a longtime Audi driver and want to jump ship to try a Mercedes Benz E Class Estate. Current car a 2003 A6 Quattro Avant. I can't decide between the E320 and E220 models. I'm looking for good fuel efficiency and will be doing a 75 mile each way commute (mostly motorway). What mpg do...

I bought an A160 Petrol Auto Elegance 2010 3 months ago, a used vehicle with 13000 miles on the clock. I moved down to a smaller vehicle and hoped to get much better fuel economy. Unfortunately I have been extremely disappointed with the MPG. Measuring tank to tank I am getting 33MPG for a mix...

Hi All, New to the site so please let me know if I am doing anything wrong (I am sure you will ;-) ) Anyway, picked up my ML270 on a 52 plate last week, 73K on the clock and seems to run very well. My main concern is MPG, i have managed to do 300 miles to 73 Litres of Diesel .. that works...

Hi there, Using http://www.spritmonitor.de/en/ I collected my "brim-to-brim" re-fuelling data for analysis. The tool allows to calculate real fuel economy judging by real mileage and amount of fuel used, so gives quite precise figures. Thus, I found out that my instrument cluster MPG...
