Hello think I might have a problem with my altea... I travel 8 miles to work and only get about 36 mpg ( according to the dash display) if I try and get more mpg the maximum I can get is 41 miles to the gallon. I know it's only a short distance so I went for a drive the other night, took it steady and did about 40 miles, but still only managed 43 mpg. Plus on the weekend when I rack up 30 miles I'm getting a mpg reading of 34 .
Iv read on here of people getting into the 50's, iv had my altea for a month now, it's a 2.0 tdi 140 with only 31k on the clock dealer said they gave it a service before I picked it up, I put some injector cleaner through the system and have tried a few different fuels, Tesco normal, shell normal, shell v power, bp normal and bp ultimate, and still am only getting a maximum of 41mpg,
So my question is ........ Is this normal ? Or have I got a problem?
