Evening Folks.
Hopefully a quick one.......
With the temperature dropping, ive noticed a massive drop in fuel economy when cold. Only really driven the car in the warmer months, but recently been driving the 8 miles home from work at 3 or 4am, with the outside temp around 5 degrees C.
Now, the first mile is a fairly constant uphill, with the first 1/3rd a 30 limit, and the rest a 50. If i pull out of work, and limit the throttle to around 50%, and to 2500rpm, i cant get the fuel consumption up about 16mpg, regardless of how hard i try.
Anyone have similar?
