Phil
Read up on the German diesel CR Powerbox chips that do not alter anything that Hyundai have as standard they fit between the common rail and the ecm and to ensure warranty is unaffected you remove it before taking it in for service.

They cost about £90 and help with torque and power and once you learn to drive with one the mpg improves too.

You haven't said where you live and for next 2 weeks I am on hols but you can contact me for a copy of my write up if you cant find it by searching the previous entries. Diesel fuel consumption was a problem in the early models but its ok now and there have been various improvements to the older vehicles so when you post next or pm me date of registration will help me + full model detail. First dealer, how long youve had it if not first owner. :57:
By my rekoining your getting about 26mpg uk gal at the moment and it should be around 32/34 at least. :whistling:

Right I'm off on hols back in 2 weeks. :beer:
