Hello again. Interesting reference point (refueling at warning light on) ! I never tried this....might give it a try. Anyhow, in spite of the nowadays modern computer sophistication I kept a habit of keeping refueling records in my car's (Duster 2, 1.5 dci) log book that I put all the important observations (all the interventions and observations). I do it a bit differently, in a way that I refuel always to the top, and even that in a consistent manner - just one press on the gun after it automatically stops for the first time. I know that this also might be a bit variable but, all in all, surely under the 1 liter per one topping up. Topping up, in my case is almost always in the range of 20-40 liters of diesel. After a 40 000 km on the clock, out of the 20+ calculations (I missed many) I would say 90% of my fuel consumption is between 5,5 and 6,5 l/100. Roughly 1/5 of my mileage is city, 1/2 is highways and the rest is various 40-70 km pleasant driving on secondary roads (asphalt or makadam). Rarely have I engaged even auto mode, never lock mode, so, it's 2wd 99% of these 40 000+ kms. What I find misleading is the on board computer which ALWAYS shows less for an average consumption (in between 0.2 and 1 liter per 100 km. Also, I've kept experimenting for a while in comparing "eco mode" on and off, and I agree, the difference is negligible (if any?) provided you drive really carefully and in a non aggressive way (with eco mode on you are "deprived" by the car's computer so it only makes sense to use it for someone who is not used to drive with a "low consumption driving" attitude).
If you see carefully, the dashboard is continuously showing the car under a lowerspeed gear… (most certainly because the continuous speed function is on). That increases the fuel burning in a way that no reasonable experienced driver would perform...
This is 40mpg overall, but isn't that absolutely terrible for any diesel except perhaps a large-capacity/ powerful BMW or Audi, even allowing for the low speeds? I would have thought most diesels could get closer to 50mpg even when driving around town. Is the Duster a particularly heavy car or something?
Have a 2wd version. Over 4000 miles it is averaging 58mpg, all road types. Motorway speeds 60mpg+, cross country rural, no motorway best seen 69mpg. Filled tank to tank, all fills and distances recorded. The avg mpg in computer is not that bad maybe 1-2 mpg over recording.
@@DusterCoolTravels By the way is there ANY difference is auto vs 2wd ? The rear drive shaft constantly spins anyways since in transmission there must be a locked differential right? So even if i have auto vs 2wd the rear drive shaft never gets engaged to the read diff via the diff clutch maybe perhaps in low speeds in offroadright? Or am i mistaken ?
@@DusterCoolTravels Wrong. In auto mode it engages 2wd at 60km/h. Do you do less than that in a highway? If you do it you should stop doing it. It is very dangerous.
Aproximativ 1 l la 1000 km. Depinde de mai mulți factori. Ad-blue găsești la mai multe prețuri. Media ar fi 50 ron 10 L. Prea mari costuri nu implică sistemul ad-blue.
Mult prea putini km în oraș (30parca) față de totalul km făcuți ca să-ți faci o idee pt un consum mixt. Estimez un consum de 6,5 /6,8 mixt la un condus normal pt motorul ăsta
Ai dreptate dar in cazul Dusterului ,dupa ce sare prima data pistolul mai pun 15-16l timp de 5 minute pana este plin ochi. E aiurea sa stai atat in pompa si cel mai rau( in cazul meu 130TCE 130 cai 4x2) este faptul ca litrometrul nu citeste nivelul nou si nu-mi arata plinul.Daca nu fac plinul pana da afara nu este nici o problema. In fapt in carte scrie sa nu se faca plinul pana da afara pt a ramane o zona tampon de aer in rezervor.
Thank you. The full thank has 50 litres, I made 300 km with 17 litres, I think I could make around 890 km with the full tank, in the same conditions. 😁
Salut. Am duster 2017, 1.5dci Diesel 4x4. Dupa calculele mele, azi pe extra urban mi-a scos in jur de 12l/100km cu auto mode on si schimbat peste 3500 turatii, aer pornit pe 2 sau 3. E normal? Cam 670km m-a tinut un plin@@DusterCoolTravels
Salut,interesant video,eu detin un model ca al tau,dupa ce am vazut in video inseamna ca ceea ce indica in bord este foarte apropiat de consumul facut plin la plin,eu o tin mai tot timpul pe AUTO si imi da un consum de 6.0-6.3 /l,chiar si in autostrada cu viteze intre 120-140 mai mult de 6.6/l nu a urcat.....zic eu ca este foarte ok....
@@cornelpetrom Consumul facut in comentariul meu l-am facut facand 300 km numai autostrada,dar intradevar nu am resetat la 0 ,o sa incerc sa fac si asa cum zici tu.....
@@cornelpetrom am facut eu tot cu 1.5 Blue dci (4x4),Constanta Bucuresti si retur pe pilot 130 km/ ora si am avut 6.1( instantul fluctua intre 5,8 si 6.3) vreme excelenta fara vant.
Eu am mers cu eco pe auto si am scos pe autostrada la 90 km/ora 4,5 litri/100Km. Pe mine ma intereseaza cat ma arde la buzunar nu sa merg sportiv cum au spus altii.
Domnule,terminati cu prostiile astea....eco ...eu am megane din 2005 ,nu are nici un eco si scot 4.6 la 130km/h,acuma,de acord nu in Romania,nu stiu cum sunt autostrazile acolo....dar totusi,cum sa mergi mai nene cu 90 pe autostrada??? Incearca asta in Spania sa vezi ce repede vei fi tras pe dreapta.
@@draculakickyourass Am mers in Germania si nu m-a tras nimeni pe dreapta. Pe banda 1 merg in general tirurile care sunt setate intre 85 si 90 la ora. Care este problema ?? In Germania prima banda in weekend este plina de pensionari cu rulote si merg cu 90 la ora.
@@DusterCoolTravels If the tires are worn just a little bit you get another reading. If the size is bigger or smallet than stock even worse. But I do as you when I check consumption. But best is to go for a ride that you know how far it is.
@@DusterCoolTravels you top it up before you start then go.. then top it up and see how much fuel is needed to fill up again.. but the problem is that you cant be totally accurate with shorter distances and you cant measure mixed driving (city, highway) if the distance is between 2 citys on highway for ex. Btw good work with videos and drone shots.. love my Duster..
Yea maybe in suburban areas, let's do a test in morning and afternoon traffic jams in big cities, with stop and go traffic. Where majority of people will use this like a daily driver. Don't believe that consumption will be below 9l per 100km.
