Is it possible to re-map the engine for better economy? Given that my A2 looks like it's staying with us for some years to come (helped by the fact Skipton Auto's are only a few miles away), a £250 remap to give, say, an extra 5mpg would pay for itself in just over a year at today's diesel prices, given that I'm currently doing 20k miles per year.
£1.40/ltr (£6.36/gallon!) @ 51mpg over 20,000 miles = £2493 / yr on diesel
£1.40/ltr @ 56mpg over 20,000 miles = £2270 / yr on diesel
(51mpg is my average over the past 10 months, all calculated brim to brim, mostly short journeys, mostly 4-up + child seats, potties etc, tyres all at 36psi, 16" SE wheels with 185/50 quality tyres, standard 75 engine)
ps didn't know whether to post this in 'chipping and tuning' or 'fuels' - mods pls move if you think appropriate
