Hi,
I am new here this being my first post. I am on my second Freelander 1 TD4 station wagon the first being a pre facelift Y reg and this is an 04 reg so post facelift. even when I traded the old one in it was getting 37 mpg at 90k miles on the clock whereas this on at 32k has struggled to get 34. I am not alone in this as I know a couple who did the same swap and have the same complaint. Obviously Land Rover dealers give you blank looks when you ask about this but I am not dreaming it. does anyone have any idea why there should be a difference? The only thing I can think of is the mapping of the ECU. I have done the PCV swap for the BMW cyclone and the ERG bypass, both of which have made a difference but I still can't get over 34MPG
