C200 CDI 2003 reg Poor Fuel Economy After MOT
Hi
My MB C200 CDI 2003 reg has started giving Poor Fuel Economy after MOT along the same route I used to be proud of getting 55 MPG constantly without any fuel additives. Now the economy has dropped to 43-47 MPG. Incidently the temperature has dropped to sub-zero (0 to -6). I am not sure whether it is because of the cold temperature or because the car was thrashed during the MOT smoke test which blew some part
Kindly advise. BTW the garage used Fuel CleanXXX before MOT to reduce black smoke during the test.
