The weather got worse during the week, and so did my mpg, reading as low as 39mpg on the OBD......

On friday I filled up to the brim, and over the weekend did 417 miles, 340 of those were on M6/M62/A1/A66 roads using cruise control with the OBD fixed between 53.3 and 54.3 mpg.

I filled up on returning, and had used 35.11 litres giving a brim to brim mpg over those 417 miles of 53.9....which makes the OBD quite accurate.

Ive done another 100 mixed miles today and the OBD is still showing 53.3mpg, so hopefully the car is back to normal mpg after its MAF change...and I'll get 50 around town, and 55ish on a run.....

I can feel no real difference, with my new MAF, and running without one though!
