[bill196510]

Yes it did, but was good on fuel before it failed, then I called it oliver reed lol.
Gained 13 mpg over when I got it, stupid turbo thingy, lol.

My car has lost mpg since my replacement engine was fitted.

I did have to mess with the vac pipes as the turbo was not working correctly, all seems to work fine now and all pipes look to in the correct place engine pulls at all speeds oh and swirl flaps working.

What pipe did you have a problem with?

It's only doing under 20 MPG at the moment you are looking at the readout and that makes it scary. Over time and distance it will even out to your average. If you drive pedal to the metal all the time, you will get poor MPG of course, but if you compensate for the hard driving with some gentle stuff, the MPG should almost be acceptable on a 2.2.
I had an S type Jag that I could get down to 7 MPG when pushed hard, but averaged 22-26 mpg.

I get around 30 - 35 local and 44 - 50 motorway.
Mines a 2.2 HDi 173 HP.
