Preparing for AUX power for lights, utility etc. Marine fusebox, homemade bracket is 3mm alu. Fitted a Ironman 60W LED bar with some homemade bracket to the roof rack. Have been thinking for some time about lights for the rack, but didn't really want to destroy the lines of the car with big lights. Think this is more slick... Still need to wire everything, but it's taking form.

The TD4 doesn't have a cambelt.........

It's funny you say that, I didn't know until I went back to my mate (owns the garage) and he said, "Do you want some good news..."

He wasn't paying attention when I said what I wanted doing, still goes in Thursday and I can't wait to get it back.
 
I think I must have broke it!

On Monday eve I put in £40 (7.09 gallons) of fuel, into an empty tank.
Since then I have done 195 miles and I reckon I've got about another 35 miles in it.

That works out at more than 32 mpg so something must be broken!

Yep. Pick one... your sums, the fuel pump meter, the milometer thingie. Somethings gotta be wrong - Epic gets less than that out of his TD4!
 
But a typical day will see journeys of 1-5 miles and several of them.....at less than 8mph average.

I suspect the v6 would be worse......

To be fair it's been mainly motorway at 50-60 mph, but still...

I'm going to have to do a proper test now, just to satisfy my curiosity.
I'll fill it to the brim tomorrow and zero the odo, then check the miles and fuel it takes at the following fill up, unless anyone knows a better way?
