I actually read that 1.6 TDI in particular needs not only a software update, but the injectors need swapping too. Is it possible one or the other has not been? Has the car had the recall?

I see. Here's the thing I couldn't work out, car gives current MPG, trip MPG, average speed, distance, range but the one that interests me is "fuel used". Surely if I brim the tank every time, once...

Some people here are reporting better/more accurate readings from the Scangauge than the cars computer, otherwise, what's the point buying one just to get the same info the cars computer gives you?

Well I ran the tank down as far as I dare go, I squeezed the most fuel in I've ever got and the dash MPG was about 2-3 Mpg higher than the fuelly calculations. Safe to say then that it's working...

Jeez there's so many things that could affect it. I'm just thinking back, when fuelling up, I noticed the fuel seemed very frothy with lots of bubbles in it, maybe there was air in the fuel? I'm...
