OK, I have a bit more hard data now on how the tuning box changes the MPG
With Tuning Box (12 Tanks)
Average Calculated MPG 34.66 mpg
Error on Dash MPG 11.12%
Without Tuning Box (19 Tanks)
Average Calculated MPG 35.14 mpg
Error on Dash MPG 4.54%
So no real difference in actual MPG but the MPG reading from the car's computer is way off as standard and made much worse by the tuning box.
I have this week done the intake mod and fitted a BMC air filter. Have to say the car is pulling a fair bit harder and sounds a bit more throaty! The tuning box has been off a fair bit as it has developed a fault which TDI Tuning are trying to fix.

Seems logical. I still can’t beat 30 mpg av and have given up monitoring.Ti Rich wrote: ↑Thu Feb 25, 2021 2:13 pm OK, I have a bit more hard data now on how the tuning box changes the MPG

Thanks Ti Rich, what the error with the TDI box? Is it systemic?
Don't know to be honest. I had an error whereby the car would just die. I have diagnostic equipment and it was showing a temperature sensor error which is within the boost senor as well. Removed the system and all fine.ultrabelse wrote: ↑Sat Feb 27, 2021 8:59 am Thanks Ti Rich, what the error with the TDI box? Is it systemic?
They then sent me a replacement unit and wiring harness but as soon as I connected that up I was getting fuel sensor errors and the glow plug light just kept on flashing . Remove unit, clear errors, and all OK again.
They have now sent me another wiring harness to try but I have not fitted it yet, will do it shortly.
It was all going so well!

I like to think I am positive and sensible. However sometimes enthusiasm takes over.Rab J wrote: ↑Sat Feb 27, 2021 7:48 pmSounds like you're driving it properly TomTom 2000 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 26, 2021 11:14 pmSeems logical.

No not yet. They want me to photo every step of the installation even though I have done it many times before. I ran out of time last weekend so will do it this weekend and will update here.
