Hi team
Any ideas? My cousin's A2 TDi has suffered from a significant drop off in MPG in the last few months.
Last year I diagnosed they had a split intercooler and replacing that not only improved performance, but improved MPG! However, she is saying it has fallen off quite a lot recently and are getting less than 300 miles off a 34L tank of DERV.
I asked her to check if the temperature gauge gets up to 90 and it does - after about 20mins of driving (I was thinking the thermostat might be stuck). Do we think that's too slow in the current weather?
She's not been able to get it scanned for any error codes yet but before she does, what other things might be suspect do we think? Faulty MAF?
