Leaks & Noises
Hi I have noticed that me fule consumption on my diesel vectra has gone up. If I put £20 worth of diesel in i get about 100miles. I should be getting atlest 150+ miles.
I have had the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve replaced last week, (as the engine light had come on and after running the diagnistics, it came up with faulty EGR valve). Would the EGR valve have anything to do with the high consumption.
I also had to change the fuel filter housing and fuel filter. I cannot see any leaks and there are no diesel drops on my drive.
Any ideas as to why my fuel consupmtion has changed ?
Thanks
