Range in a 110

[jimr1]

G'day , I know this has been covered before , but could anyone with a 2.2 tell me what sort of Ks I can except in a 110 . I do know if I fill right up , I get a good 115 ks before the gauge drops to full , I have never let It get low , so was wondering what range I could expect if I run the fuel down on a long trip ? cheers !!.. Jim

I find I get about 550 km around town and about 700km on the highway usually. Doesn't vary too much when I have the camper attached. When the low fuel light comes on, I fill up within 30 km but always put less than 70 litre's in.
Cheers Ian

And there you have it, although I haven't yet done as well as 700.

When I picked up Mine from Dubbo it was full - and I noticed it went for a long while before I saw the guage come down to full - it was probably 100k+ into the trip. I was a bit worried it wasn't working

They are all the same Col.

It depends on road speed and winds with a defender,my Tdi gets around 700 and the TDCi about 650. Pat

Damn right it does. 110km/h and 120km/h makes about 100km range difference for me.

First time I checked my tdi, even allowing 5% for odometer over reading I got 850km. I thought I had an 85 litre tank but have been advised its 75 litres which would calculate out at 8.83 litres/ 100km but I'm generally satisfied with 9.5l/ 100 km and that doesn't seem to matter how hard I push the old girl on the hwy - off road, economy obviously plummets. In a Puma you're obviously sacrificing a bit of economy for performance and I reckon it's worth the sacrifice to arrive at a destination an hour earlier for a cost of $10 or so.

Yep, I've found the same too. In fact, the sweet spot for economy and comfort in mine (09 Puma on 33s) seems to be around 105km/h.

I normally float between 11 and 11.5 to the 100km, but the truck is lifted, has mud tyres, roof top tent, etc.

Hi guys, I used to do fuel economy on my Tdi, I think the fuel tank is closer to 80 liters than 75.
I routinely got about 9-10 / 100 kms, light without the roof rack, even fully loaded with roof rack usually about 10.5 I remember once doing sustained high speed, 110 km/hr. ( for a Tdi defender), on a motorway with the roof rack I got to 11.5 once. I could n't believe how economical it was to run, later on a realized i was about 5 or 6 km/hr less than I thought. Later with my 42 l sill tank, I once left home did a few days touring through the Victorian high country and refilled on the Hume highway on the way back 1100 kms between refueling, that's a fairly useful range.
