    Constant 25mpg - Major service needed?

    Spoke to a few people have Clios and they're saying my MPG is low compared to theirs.

    The car is due a service so I was just wondering what else to change to try and improve the figures?

    Oil
    Oil filter
    Panel filter
    pollen filter
    spark plugs?

    Cheers,

    James

    It's cos you rag it around everywhere Plugs, oil, oil filter and maybe HT heads could help, but then you would need to check out stuff like lambda sensor I think.

    As said yesterday James just needs a good old service. If things have not improved then look towards the lambda sensor.

    Yea reset it last £20 I put in Rhys. Got 100.0 miles an 25.8mpg.

    Even with using cruise at 70 on motorway it's never rinsen up on a long trip.
