I use an exceptionally light foot and a scangauge to give me constant feedback about what the engine is doing. For example, when i go downhill the engine will cut the injectors. When the hill starts levelling out i reapply the juice pedal but as lightly as i can. This helps keep consumption down. Also when going uphill it helps to see what the load is and adjust pedal pressure accordingly. I use a block heater in the winter and usually keep using it up till late spring. I'll start using it again in autumn. On top of all this i use a grille block to speed up the warmup. It also means my top speed is limited to 120kph for short periods but to do that would waste a load of diesel anyway due to aero drag. Most of my driving is on 80kph back roads anyway so i'm up to the speed limit most of the time. When i go into an urban area i lift off the accelerator when coming up to a red light. I brake at the end to stop. This cuts fuel too as the engine uses DFCO or Deceleration Fuel Cut Off. It also saves my brakes and tires. And the beauty of all this is that i am driving at more or less the same speed as everybody else! Yay!
