HI all
Im a new member. Just picked up my new surf this weekend in north Wales. Could not resist having a little play while there as you will see from the photos. Very pleased with new truck. Had been looking for a 3 litre manual but in the end settled for a 2.4 auto. Ive read there can be head problems with these. Is there anything i should know or do?
Little shocked with fuel consumption. Having done 540 miles over the weekend (£140 of diesel) worked out only getting 17.4 MPG.
That consisted of over 300 miles of motor way, lots of A roads and a days green laning.
Seems like alot to me. Could something be wrong? Im a very economical driver, was getting over 50MPG from my vectra so its not a heavy right foot.
Turbo is almost always on. Is this normal? Did most of the motor way at 65mph and turbo was on all the time.
Just added the pics. There a little down the page.
