id say the xe in me corsa sri is more economical than the 1400 16v that was originally in there. i very rarely have to fill it up with petrol whereas i was for ever filling the 1400 up id seemed | |

one thing ppl are not remembering is petrol is 95p a litre, it has shot up alot in such a short space of time, so the amount of petrol for 10 quid compared to while ago ur getting 3rd less for ur money than year or 2 ago. | |

Your saying your ecu light is on because of a nackered tps and wondering why your fuel comsumption is bad? Its not rocket science to work out why is it? | |

i really wish i was joking, but i put £30 in before we set off, then on the way back put another 15 quid in just past manchester. sat at 90mph pretty much all way there and back. | |

its probably because of the tps fault! the tps may be giving false readings to say that the throttle is always further open than it actually is, and that will cause it to run rich. therefore use more fuel. i had a faulty tps on by tb'd x16xe recently, drank 10 litres of fuel whilst idling for 20 mins! | |
