i changed the oil. the oil filter, fuel filter, and plugs about 2 weeks ago as my mpg suddenly dropped, it was all the same time i replaced the coolant temp sensor, and put de-cat pipe on, the decat pipe has now been removed to see if that helps at all... the car runs sweet as a nut and i never do rev it past 2500 when cold and even when warm i very rarely take it over 3000.... we see how the 10er i put in other night goes and will update

Depends on loads on a couple of things like are you doing urban driving or motorway driving.
when im going to work & back during the week i get 180 miles to £30 or sometimes just put £20 in and get 120miles but the other week i done all urban driving lots of starting & stopping,short distances and got 80 miles to £20 which is shocking imo.
