First of all i would like to say hi all.
Bit bout myself and landys.Had a frlander1 for around 3-4 years (td4) and loved it,it did all i asked of it so as a hole very hapy with it.Only last week i chopped it in for a 2008 fl2 2.2 auto GS,must say i love the the thing,great drive with a lot more power if needed.
The problem i have is mpg (shhhhhite) to say the least and not happy,I always knew it wouldnt be as good as the fl1 bout thrt if i nursed it along with a very light right foot it shouldnt be all that bad but after running it for only a week its given me 24-25 to the gallon,
I would say that was 50/50 motoway and town driving(cc set at 60 on motor way just to see what i can get from it) as said not happy!
checked all tyre presures and there all fine
The car has done 50k full fsh no roof bars i never had it in sports mode,i would more say grandad mode if anything
Ive checked the mpg by working it out in the way you should but must say it worked out the meter on the dash tells me the same thing aswell.
Could any1 advise me on this.does it sound right or does it sound as tho theres a problem,if so what?
Been looking at the synigey 2 how ever you spell it lol,has any one tryed 1 on the fl2,if so how did you find it?
Many thanks for any advice given
