Mooching Celt 658 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 300tdi disco 28mpg round the doors and 31mpg on a run doing about 65-70. Done a few of the recommended mods aswell, egr, front pipe etc but made no difference maybe going to tweak the pump a little to see if that makes it do any more My boss got a navara not sure what year as it on his private plate but new style and reckons he only can get 25mpg regardless how he drives it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
derbylad1 293 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 well my fourtrak is doing around 30 mpg. luckily not my main vehicle, so the cost isnt a major problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ray 185 Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 I win on shite mileage. I get 15 mpg or 20 on the motorway driving like a granny with a 4.6 litre V8 but it's nice to drive. I beat you My 90s only got a 3.9 V8, but towing the boat I would love to see double figures.

Had a few of the ols shapes, 25mpg if you are lucky, had a new shape one, was an auto, and proberly worse on fuel! The Isuzu rodeos are meant to be about the best Quote Link to post Share on other sites
