My current tune is worse on consumption and I'd be lucky to see 390km out of 75 litres.Do you have a heavy foot. Should be able to hang around 12-14 around town really. You can reset the screen to get it to start again.

This was around town with pretty much 100% spirited driving though Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88508-ba2-xr6t-excessive-fuel-consumption/#findComment-1478436 Share on other sites More sharing options...
