1.6TDi Poor Economy

Post by smpaarrkky »

Morning All,

Im having a bit of an issue with my 1.6TDi Passat. Shes a 2013 saloon.

For the last few months she has been running a bit poor, fuel economy has dropped from around 65mpg per journey to a max of 40. The start/stop function has also stopped working.

I thought that the issue might be a bit of wear and tear, shes not had a service in 18 months, so last week I booked her in for a major service (not with VW though, didnt want to risk the software update being added). Unfortunately she is still running poor, and the economy has not improved.

Was wondering if anyone has any ideas on what might be wrong, and a reason for the poor economy and no start/stop anymore?

Thanks, Mark
