    Same pump?

    Is the mpg reading reset with the trip? It might be giving you a different average for some reason.

    We only get about the same from the previous gen 1.5dci

    What do call previous gen? I have a 61 plate 1.5 dCi (90) Megane Estate, I normally get an indicated average MPG of between 55 and 58 depending on what kind of driving I've been doing on any particular fill up (although I have pushed it into the 60s on occasion), those figures tie up closely to the results I get using the calculation formula that AdrianC mentioned.

    You are correct, the reading needs to be reset every fill up, I also reset the trip. On the Megane it also shows gallons, tenths of gallons used and range, however, annoyingly, the range stops showing when you get to 60 miles left.
    I hate football and do wish people wouldn't keep talking about it like it's the most important thing in the world
