First reasonably cold start of the winter and it sounded a bit rough for a moment or two! It’s getting an oil change next weekend, so hoping that might help!

I was going to post about our low temperature this morning in Somerset. We were nearly down to +6C. FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)
FL2 Metropolis SD4 Auto 2014 2017- (16k - 85k+ miles) (MY2015)
Metro in its 12th Year of (Extended) LR Warranty / Full LR Service History
(Expensive, but Trouble/Worry free - hopefully?)

Mines always sounded a bit lumpy at that temp but does start.

lovely fresh morning by the looks of it.... -5 degrees though !!

and where did you get that 45.4mpg from ? if im really careful I can get about 41mpg out of my manual SD4 Ewok on my morning commute but never reached anywhere near that with my FL2.

Our SD4 Auto will return 47mpg

The old Td4.e managed 45mpg

Those figures are not unachievable

maybe I just need a new right foot - lightweight version (size 12.5)

Must be that Clean Scottish Air, less pollutants to resist airflow,
I get a lot less than that in Kent,

I cannot achieve much more than an instantaneous mpg of 40, unless I'm going downhill with the wind behind me.
Normal indicated average is about 33 - 34 mpg. FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)

Made me chuckle the "rush hour" pic, just spent the last two weeks in London, night mare. I can drive 20 min here to the shops and see 3 or 4 cars.

It was 47.0mpg, but had dropped to this by the time I parked outside the house
