Hi,
Just out of interest. For those of you with XE's ¡V What sort of mileage do you get to a full tank? I got 170 miles to a tank of Optimax the other day . Think I need to get a Lamba sensor in there sharpish. ƒ»

i get that to about £50 in trev!!
Cant remember the valver being that good; neither that bad really. Mine would get about that sort of MPG when i was having injector issues; so would expect it to be better when all running better
