I've owned my 2.8 crd voyager for about six years and have got to know the normal fuel consumption for various driving conditions. I could get about 36 on the motorway and around 28 round town.


I recently had a lumpy tick over and was advised it was a faulty injector so I had them all sent away to be refurbished.


I've had it back about a month and it certainly is driving much better, however I can't now achieve more than 23 mpg, even on the motorway.


Quite a drop, it's been suggested that now the injectors are working properly they are pushing through more fuel. Not sure about that I was expecting better mpg not worse.


Just wondered what sort of mpg others get with the same vehicle.
The car is 07 and done about 150k - 70k of which I've done.


Any thoughts.


Thanks

 

Hi
I've never had any more than 23/25MPG.

 

Perhaps your EGR is needing cleaned out or sticking.

 

Same here. 23-25MPG for me

 

Thanks for the replies.


I've now got the engine warning light on so I'll see if I can get the fault code.


Been a while since I tried this is it with the key in the ignition rapidly

on-off-on-off-on-off

 

No, it's off-on-off-on-off-on
