Title: BSH PCV fix causes probelms? MPG fuel ETC
Post by: namz1 on December 06, 2011, 01:08:00 am

Ever since having the PCV revamp fitted i havnt been able to reach the best MPG as i used to before remap, £20 of fuel gets me only around 60 miles in the city which im sure is very poor, Would anyone recommend me removing this and going ahead with fitting the updated PCV from the dealers?
Its reallly getting on my nerves and would love to find the solution to this!

20 quid is about 3 gallons, very approx. So you averaging 20MPG in the city, which is about right.

Not round town it won't be. He will be lucky to get 10mpg round town.

If I pop to the shops in mine, it will do about 14-18mpg
