48 miles less per fill

I think on steady motorway driving mpg will fall but general around town I doubt much different

my mpg average hasn't gone down yet.

Just out of interest how does the SMG behave with this mod, have heard a few peeps having probs in auto mode(not that I use it!) and not changing properly in manual mode.

Also does any ecu resetting or mapping need to be done on the car or is it just a simple ratio change?

Any info Shimmy?

Cheers

Got me thinking now, I had a crunch and over-rev to 8436 rpm on a downshift and put it down to gearbox getting too hot, now wondering if it could be down to the software not understanding the safe speed to change down and me doing so too early?

so a bit of a confession - just had the 4.10 diff installed

previously the diff i had installed was a standard 3.62 diff which i had been told was a 4.10 but they gave me the wrong one

bad news is that makes me a twat!

good news is - I CAN GO FASTER AGAIN!!!!

i double checked GPS speeds with 3.62 and today with the 4.10 and they work out perfectly to the tables provided on the other thread.

on the drive home you def seem to get into 6th much quicker and cruising above 60 you do it in 6th

more feedback later

Tell us something we didnt know Shimmy

At least your honest.

Just goes to show that placebo effect has a big big part to play.
