Morning guys over the last month ive noticed my mpg has been slowly going down so last week i reset my computer to get a weekly average and im getting 21mpg on a standard week and i used to get 28-29mpg
Euro 4 automatic 60/40 motorway/ A roads
I do more or less the same route day in day out every week for the last 3 years so my milage and route havent changed so it's the the truck thats some how become less efficient
Anyone got any suggestions what i can check?
The filters religiously get changed every 6 months (last changed in October) and im still useing bp for my fuel
The only other thing ive noticed is when the engine is cold if i give it full boot as in wheels spinning, it sometimes dumps a brick and looses all power untill i shut down and restart but if being run for 5 minutes or more its fine
But its been like that over a year and dosent seem to be getting any worse
Im suspecting the suction control valve for that but havent been able to confirm yet and cant see how that could affect the recent mpg loss
