Just got back from north Wales with caravan and I think Ive got used to this auto box.I filled up before I left Stockport and drove 142 miles towing 120 kg van with 4 bikes on the roof rack.When I arrived I told the attendant to fill it up[yes. They still fill up for you down there! ] 25.7 ltr went in at a cost of £27.I worked out I,d done 25.1 m.p.g.:) Weather conditions were good with little wind[apart from the kids in the back :D]On some long climbs I went into second and revs were hitting 3500 doing 35-40 mph.Clean oils, full new de-cat exaust ,egr blank ,new turbo hoses clean air filter.
