Living on the edge, Nick! :o ;)
I know! But it was the second fill after I first got the car. I knew i needed to refuel, but had an unplanned trip one evening that, according to the range indicator I had plenty fuel for. However, the range dropped a lot more than the miles covered that evening and again the next morning as I limped towards the fuel station. Definitely a case of adjusting from diesel Yeti consumption to petrol Turbo!

:lol: And I guess that you weren't giving the Turbo the full beans at that stage either! ;)
