160 remap by PhilT4 didn't produce any noticable effect - the car is the 131 model.
It's been T4'd several times, and given a clean bill of health - and is maintained by a Rover specialist.
Anybody got any ideas 
PS mixed short and long distance driving, but for the last couple of weeks I had a lot of motorway to do, so reset the mpg meter - it only rose to 44.1. |
My manual achieved 50+mph on a run. I've had several autos which on shorter rural trips manage 36-37ish, on a decent run 42-44.
