182 average mpg

[Gandi69]

This is probably a topic thats been asked quite a bit so my apologies so forgive me when I ask what is everyone getting in their 182s? Granted i'm pretty new to the car but I'm struggling to get it over 28/29 mpg. Its on a standard map too. I'm going to give it a service soon (oil still looks quite clean) and I'll be shoving in a K&N or similar panel filter in the airbox too. I've run it on 98 RON and 95 RON and it doesnt seem to make any difference there.

Over the last 7335 miles mine has averaged 32.1MPG, thats worked out properly and not using the onboard computer

 

[Gandi69]

I did reset the computer and it went up to 50+ mpg now its setted down to about 32/33

 

[Tony Hunter]

Last 3k average of 32mpg.

 

[Rudi]

pretty much the same as the above, mixed driving......32/33 mpg

 

[Poopensharten]

Yeah 31/32 for me (standard car), 40+mpg is only really possible on a long run in good conditions

 

[Alastair.]

wait for the people with 45+mpg constantly

 

[gatzi]

I reset it everytime I fill up

Work it out properly, the computer lies.

I have a 172 Cup which averages about 34mpg give or take 4mpg depending on my type of journey

[LowLife.]

Between 350 and 400 miles to a tank

hmm, i seem to be getting about 200-300 miles to a tank, would that suggest i have something wrong?
i tend to only do short journeys (for work & university) which would account for some of the miles, but that still seems a far lot less than the people here are saying?

Bare in mind 90% of mine are done at 60mph on the motorway.

 

[Ronnie R]

I used to get 22mpg lol

My 182's were always 32-33, 172's 35. 22mpg, as an average is only possible by driving like a clownshoe, or sitting in traffic most of the time.

Live in Kent/London... I use my car for pretty much driving to work, which is one long 9mile road of s**t traffic. Even the Honda I drive now is only 32mpg.

I averaged 34.5 in my 182 over 20k miles. Mix of motorway, short trips and hoonage!
