Megane mk3 mpg issues (2009)

[r4ndyd3vil]

Hi all I'm after some advice / help

I've had my megane (1.5 dci) for around 2 months now and have averaged between 52.7 - 53.3 mpg for the time I've owned the car

The car has recently been serviced less then 1000 miles ago.

But recently my mpg has dropped to around 51.2 - 51.4 a drop of around 1.5mpg

I travel the same amount of miles each week to work and the usual short trips around town. So trips / miles havent changed.

The only thing I think has changed is that I've done something to the climate control settings.

So just wondering if anyone knows what's the best setting to have for the best mpg?

Thanks

sell it and get a mk2, i had a mk3 dci 110bhp and that was the type of figures i would get

I get that mpg out of my mk2 and it has a 1.9dci

Think whats happened is that in order to meet new emission regs the mpg is worse, doesnt make sense but thats my two pence worth. Would be interesting to hear from anyone with the high power 1.5 dci that was fitted to the mk2, my mk2 is a 85bhp and the mk3 was a 110bhp with a six speed box.
