So what is good fuel economy on these CRD's? Had mine for a month now, it has 200,000km on it and saw I'm averaging 14ltr/100km with all city short trips ans when I took it on the highway for about 30-45min it dropped to 9ltr/100km average. I haven't done the Eco Tune yet but wondering if my mileage is terrible due to other issues I'm unaware of.


Your numbers look reasonable and pretty close to what I've been getting. Adding the GDE tune will give you an extra 10% or so and allow you to pass the Drive Clean test if you have a faulty EGR and/or FCV :wink:. You're at the peak just now and it's downhill from here. Check my fuelly if you want to see what's in store for you over the coming months :shock:.
