    I have a 1.6D 207SW. In the last 2 months the fuel economy has dropped from a normal 52 mpg (spec says 62mpg but I've tried and its impossible to get!) to a current worrying 42mpg. Driving style and source of fuel (local topas station) have not changed. I have recently got it serviced (oil and filters etc) but to no avail. Any one know what i need to look at?

    Hi DonSke,
    Usally these are easy on diesel.....:confused:

    1.What mileage have you on the car...?
    2.Did you get it serviced at the main dealers..?
    3.Have you checked if the brakes are binding...wheelrims feeling hot after a
    trip..?

    Services at a main TOYOTA dealer as its the closest!
    Breaks are not sticking as far as I can tell.
