Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    That's not good Dozz. I get 40+ (real not dash com) mixed in a petrol Laguna

    Big car with an underpowered engine isn't helping it compared to the focus either.

    Ireland gets the i40 diesel in 115bhp only unless you opt for the auto. In the UK they get both the 115bhp and 136bhp versions in both manual and automatic.

    But all the bells and whistles carry weight. You are driving a bigger car, more comfortable car with bigger engine, and your fuel economy almost matches your old Focus. 50mpg is not to be sniffed at. If great MPG was really such a major factor you should have bought a smaller car, or a hybrid.

    I have a (15 year old design) 2ltr diesel saloon with all the bells and whistles, weighs at least 10% more than an i40 tourer, and I still get 40-42mpg with a faulty MAF.

    That the OP is getting somewhere around 44mpg is shocking.

    What type of driving do you do?

    In my experience driven normally modern diesels rarely give anywhere close to their claimed figures.

    I love the way diesel is mentioned at the first whippet of discussion, its like its compulsory to own a diesel now in Ireland ffs.

    They don't sell petrol i40s here this it's a safe enough assumption.

    The Ops car is a diesel though?

    So do you guy think I have any comeback with the garage ( I have the car less than 3 months)?

    Them fuel figures are shocking OP.

    I use fuelio on my android phone to track mpg. Auto backup to drive with the pro version that can be easily found online for free.
