So are these figures putting in say £50 to fill the tank and getting 300-350 from it for the DC5 on high octane? If so that dont sound too bad as the high stuffs about 1.33-1.35.9 a ltr now. I was thinking thats the amount to fill and the mileage from a tank of 1.24.9 normal 95 ron fuel?
Cheers guys - are you all getting this on V-Power say or high octane? I know these can run on normal fuel as the main issues is using normal 95ron in turbo'd cars but if not pushing it then 95ron is ok in these (had to sue it in DC2 occasionally) So are these mpg figures from spends on higher...
So its pretty good on fuel at say a steady 70-75mph on motorway then as in talking mid - late 30's in 6th carefully driving?
kpro - is this simply an ecu re-map and if so how much does this cost?
thanks for the info guys and look forward to more replies
Hi Guys
I am an ex DC2 owner - back in my days I had many cars from R33 GTR's to EVO6's, Pulsars - you name it I pretty much had one lol.
However times are changing and ruling out many cars due to increasing running costs etc.
I am in a secure role at work but unless I get sorted with a...
Spoke to Steve again Ollie (if this is you from DC2 forum) as I explained its a donk donk donk noise - a knocking.
He said without looking he'd be unsure but said a high poss it could be cv or driveshafts going or maybe lower ball joints or track-rod ends which could be checked by any garage...
The high figure and states in miles also as they say the mileage was not on the mot's said to be lower - IMO the cars a 94K miles car not a 94K Km's car
But clearly I cant be 100% as no one can due to SVA not providing proof of anything and the poor seller taking his word for it :-(
All MOT's...
My concern was the cars mileage, when I drove it the Speedo was in MPH and the odometer showed 94K – so to me it was either NOT wound back electronically OR it has been from 151K Km‘s. So I called them and I was told by SVA Imports on the phone that they ALWAYS re-calibrate the car‘s mileage...
