I have just purchased the A4 1.9TDi (130) Auto, after 6 days of running I manually calculated the MPG at a wallet busting 37.7, used 15 gallons of diesel to do 582 miles. After reading through the forums decided to get a full service done, have MAF sensor replaced and Engine temp sensor replaced, yet the MPG has not shown any improvement. I have also had diagnostics done which did not throw up any errors. Al low revs (1100-1900) the car runs unevenly and revs can rise every 3 seconds by upto 200 rpm and then reduce back to the original level (just asthough the clutch is being depressed then lifted again), I can't help but think that the poor mpg and this are in someway related. Does anyone please have any advice on what to try next, thanks in advance for your replies Andrew

I recently purchased an 07-plate BMW 320d Coupe M Sport, 44,000 miles on the clock. First of all, what an awesome looking car it is and it drives really well. My only disappointment having had it two weeks is the mpg I'm getting. The 'book figures' suggest it should be achieving between 50mpg round town and up to 70mpg on a good run. I'm getting around 40mpg round town and have never got much beyond 50mpg, even on a really good run. Has anyone else experienced this or know what the problem may be? I've taken it into BMW and they say there is nothing wrong with it mechanically. The weather may be a factor - its been sub-zero most of the time I've had it but I'd expect this to account for a few mpg as opposed to the 10 to 20 mpg I seem to be missing out on. Any advice appreciated.
