what mpg are you guys getting on your cupra t 's

[zorro]

About 28mpg from purely town driving - short trips etc..
I've just had a BMW 118D as a courtesy car for the last week (awful car.. ) and i've just filled it back up to the max, £37 worth for a week's driving i usually put £20-£25/week in the mine so the LCR mpg doesn't feel so bad

 

[S15YCE]

Ah right, Thanks for the info lee!

 

[Dissimulate]

best i have EVER got from my LC 180 is 43mpg! sat at 50mph from Durham to York up the A1! oh the shame of lorries overtaking me :'(
Average around the doors is usually 24-28 and motorway is about 34-38 depending on how im driving (which is laregely effected by what music i have on XD)

Well, I've been testing this out today, thought I'd try the 20 mile M54/M6 route instead of the 15 mile A41 route.

A41, best I've averaged was 29.9

M6, on the way to work I saw 38, on the way home I saw 44mpg!

Granted, I literally could not gave drove any more economicalky, but I was pleased with that... Although I have heard something about the MPG on Stg2 LCR's not being accurate due to something that has to be upgraded knocking it out?

Fuel pressure regulator I think it might of been

 

[Wolvo-Oleg]

Oh and don't get me wrong, it does get driven properly, averaged 22mpg last tank . Ran religiously on V-Power.

 

[Dozer360]

On regular petrol I only got 183 miles out of the tank

On V-Power the range says 330

I have now put a jetex cone on so I'll see how much that affects my mpg, if I ever get over the amazing sound and stop giving it the wwwwssssssshhhhhh every now and then.

I cannot get more than 300 from a tank. I drive to work-20 odd miles each way mainly at a constant 60, little bit of traffic. occasionly give it a few beans but im talking once a day accelerate onto the slip road. working to be about 28mpg which is shocking for how careful im driving it really

This Scotty off SBR?

Mate check your MAF, cleaning mine gave me an 8mpg increase according to the computer

Check the thermostat with vag com i bet you are not holding 88 deg, forget what the dash gauge says as that will even say 90 if you are below.

 

[suzsv650]

just got ~325 out of a tank on my LCR.

Thats not driving like a wimp and had 5 people in the car for 80-100 of those miles no motorway.

Started with 98 Ron from Esso now, so will see if that increases. Also will be buying a Jetex next week.

 

[Dozer360]

my car only gets V-Power (except when those idiots panic bought all of it and i had to get regular), yes it costs more but it will save me money in the long run with a smoother running engine and more miles per tank.

 

[Wolvo-Oleg]

I normally get about 250 per tank.. I start off all eco-mode, but by the end of the tank, I've done some showing off and my average ends up at around 23 mpg

 

[nally270lb.TQE]

I did Glos to sheffield the other day. 178 miles then did a week od driving around urban areas. cost £69 to fill up on tesco 99 and i got 314 miles out of it. I reckon add another 25 miles onto that as fuel light wasnt on.Driving conservatively is the way forward.

Tbf tho there's no point owning a performance car then chasing MPG's. It's a contradiction of terms

Hello mate, ye its me!!

It's got a brand new maf from a decent parts supplier. Made no difference though and still runs flat

I'd hardly call a 180 hp hatch a performance car though!!! just a bit more poke for dual carriageways etc really. Modern diesels piss on it.

Will check thermostat on vag com-realistically just replace it at the weekend as I dont know when it was last done anyway.

 

[Wolvo-Oleg]

Yer but I would call a stage 2 LCR a performance car lol

 

[Wolvo-Oleg]

Can't really help with your problem tho mate sorry, I'm so far from technical minded it's untrue pmsl

Well with 100 more than mine and having driven a stage 2 s3 the other night I believe youre completely right. Not many diesels keep up with that ;-)

If i reset my computer on the MPG bit and leave it, it always seems to sell and stop at around 27mpg, thats a remapped stage one lc180 with decat running rich? Odd thing with it is ive filled it up twice full tank at £75, last time it said i had 260 miles to empty, did about 40 miles it dropped to about 210 mixed driving, 2 days ago i filled it up again, same petrol, same price (texaco super) said i had 330 miles to empty, ive done around 40 miles since then and its still saying 315 to empty.. weird cars ! Im hoping getting it mapped properly to suit the decat will give me better mpg on average?
