How is the fuel economy on the Jaguar Xf 2.0d 180hp? The manufacturer published numbers show over 70mpg. I personally never exceeded 50mpg. I do about 500 miles a week, all motorway. I use Normal mode mostly and eco mode when stuck in traffic, I don't do rapid accelerating. The car displays...

Hi All I'm looking for informed recommendations for a smartphone OBD. I want to be able to read and clear codes and monitor performance for problem solving and improving. The first task will be to look into the fuel economy of my recently acquired 2009 2.2 X-Type diesel. I've just got to the...

So on my lovely 2014 XF 3.0d 240bhp I'm getting around 32mpg, mix of local journey and occasional longer run up the M5. What is your experience of consumption on this model, is this normal (I can sometimes smell diesel round the engine bay but nothing visible), also those of you who have had a...

Hello all, In my city (very heavy traffic) I get a fuel consumption between 11 and 12 l/100km (25.6 and 23.5 MPG) - Usually I have a two 6 miles trips (so 12 miles daily). On highway, at a speed between 120 and 130km/h (75 - 80mph) I get something around 7 l/100km (40 MPG). Are this also the...

Hardly going to win any green awards to start with, but recently noticed a drop in my XFR's fuel economy. Wondered if anyone had come across the same issue? I used to get 32+ mpg on the motorway regularly and around 26-27mpg combined. Nowadays i'm struggling to get 27mpg on the motorway and...

Hi All, Hows everyone doing? - Im new to the forum and recently got a 2011 XJ auto 3.0D 275bhp with 70k on the clock. I got some questions if anyone can help, I'd be very greatful Issue: The cars average mpg is only 26.7mpg despite the fact I drive it sensibly locally and on the motorway my...

Apologies if duplicating existing thread but couldn't find this specific one when searching Wondered how other XFR owners were getting on in terms of fuel economy? I'm shocked by this car, I was warned by friends with V8s to expect figures of around 15mpg on the motorway, 11 around town and...

Hi all, I did a search, but couldn't find what I was looking for. I have changed from a 3.0 auto Sport to a 2.5 manual Sport, following the accident that wrote off the old car and was expecting the fuel consumption to be, at best, the same as the bigger engined car in town. But it seems to be...

I have a 51 plate 2001 X-type, 2.5 automatic. Recently I had noticed my fuel gauge dipping quite quickly even with little driving. I thought it might have been an issue with the saddle tank and the sensors. However, today I filled up and put 31 liters in (8.2 gal). But I've only done 80 miles...

Hi All, I know this is a daft question as I'm posting it in to the XKR category so I kinda no the answer before I ask but....... I'm getting about 14MPG at the moment. I'm not driving like a lunatic and am generally doing about 5-10 miles a day through the city. I'm putting 97 grade fuel in...

Hi One and All. My 2000 XJRV8 averages 16-17 MPG. It may creep up towards 18-19 on a long run. I was wondering if other owners get similar consumption? It has a strange idiosyncrasy: when coasting down hill with no throttle the instant fuel consumption will read (say) 70 MPG then it will...

Hi, I've had an extended test drive in this Fabulous car but I'm really disappointed with fuel economy. Computer gave me overall consumption 44 MPG over nearly 90 miles trip Last 25 miles ( 15 miles A/B roads and 10 Motorway, start with warm engine/g-box ) averaged nearly 60 MPG as I was...

Hi all, Fuel economy has not been great on my 2007 2.0D (135k miles). Only getting about 37mpg combined, and there is plenty of smoke under heavy load. So decided to clean the EGR Valve. Straight forward job - I used the guide here on the forum to familiarise myself with whats what. When I...
