| Fuel economy improvement Had the first variable service last week on the 130 TDI Octy , Have noticed that i am now getting better fuel consumption after the service , it has gone up from an average of 47 mpg to a nice 52/54 mpg on the same journeys . Is this a normal experience , is it signs that he engine is now bedding in after 17k miles and fresh oil . After 12 months of ownership only downside is , wish i had got CC fitted and parking sensors . |

As for the CC I installed that myself at the weekend ... very easy job (well about 4 hours, £60 in parts, and the use of a VAG-COM) and good for about 2-3 mpg on a journey  | |
