Think my 6 is a bit on the thirsty side. I used to get 400 miles to a tank give or take with combined driving. Lately though she seems to be giving me around 320 is and the exhaust smells rich. Got no faults in the ecu and she runs and idles fine etc. I would say it seems a little down on power in the low end department also. I'm thinking of just going to a garage to get a smoke check done any thoughts? I was thinking maybe a dodgy lambda reading perhaps? I bought the car start of Oct and I was told it had recently had plugs and oil but no sure on fuel.filter change. I'm currently running a standard airbox and standard filter. Exhaust is standard manifold, a racing cat and then a full Jetex system from there. Any input welcome

Yea Barry the 2 sec.crank sounds familiar. I mainly do dual carriage way driving with a bit of round the town. Maybe 320 is a little short maybe it's more 350-360? I will find out in a week as I'm on half tank now

No mate got a sports cat on there and have done since I've owned it. Thought I had a slight exhaust leak which would account for it but when I got under the car I couldn't feel one but there was a note coming from what sounded like above the cat? I knocked the engine off and gave the cat a knock to see if the honeycomb had Started to break up inside but sounded solid to me
