I've had many T4 sessions off Brian as he has diagnosed and repaired many a fault on my ZTT diesel and he has given me the upgrade,no need to knock it as it does work, maybe there is a little placebo effect but there's a huge benefit from it...maybe it doesn't improve the mpg by a huge margin but it still improves it along with the vroom vroom.

Not at all - I was not knocking it in any way whatsoever.
The point I was making in a lighthearted way was that MB must have fixed some other issue if, followng the remap, the fuel economy has apparently increased by close to 12 MPG. I do not recall anyone ever claiming such increases previously.
42.7 MPG on what I imagine was a relatively constant speed and traffic free run is relatively low for a CDT. Equally, 54MPG is relatively high.
Based on your experience, are such increases possible from the 160 upgrade?
Perhaps MPG is just less variable in Suffolk due to our lack of hills.
