Hello!

I bought a new 1.2 Dynamic and I was wondering how long is the set-in period for the engine and the transmission, because right now I have a 35 mpg fuel consumption on motorway (at 60 mph) and it seems to me quite a lot :bang: . I have done with it until now about 800 miles. Should the fuel consumption decrease so much to the predicted 59 mpg in the next hundreds of miles? I use 99+ octane fuel.

I doubt if it would reach 59mpg but it should reach low 50's. Your fuel consumption should rise as it gets run in probably anything up to 10,000 miles.
