General My beast!!

My fiorino, i've plastic floor as well, so i bought some genuine floor mats with the fiorino logo on them.
There were fixing points for the driver side only already in the floor and the mats just clip on like a popper, the passenger side has no fixing points and the mat does slip about, but with the help of velcro with adhesive back does the job

Sorry, my mats are carpet(y)

Hi all, I have a menu button near the fog lights ! I press it a beep is heard and on the dash display it says menu and 2 arrows are shown up & down! Wot do I move up and down to scroll ???? All help is appreciated!! :worship:
 
Use either button, up or down, they only go round in a circle. When you get to the part of the menu you want press menu again to enter it, follow instructions to exit, and press either the up or down button again till you come to exit menu, press menu and your out. Until next time..........
Cheers Qube O.

Well had my first drive on Christmas eve and found it really easy and very good in the comfort department ! Pulls well with out having to rev it hard to go! Lots of space for a small van to! It's a green tardis! The brakes are very good to! I carnt find a fault with it yet! Give it time did I hear you all say! (y)
 
Went on a good run in the quborino today ! The blue plant at Chester! It now has 215 miles on the clock an the trip computer said 47 mpg not to bad I thought with 60 miles of that being slow town driving!! When run in should be even better than that!! (y)

Very pleased with my last tankful - 520.6 miles before filling up - my best so far. (I put 40.84 litres in to brim it again)
Included a nice long run from Exmouth to Epworth (showing an average around 61mpg most of the way) though I didn't exceed 60 mph much at all. Usually do 55-ish to get the best out of it and it's ok travelling at that speed too. Improving the mpg all the time. (Total miles done, 13683 since June 6th)

Jesus, I must have a heavy right foot! 520 miles to a tank??? What with the dirty great roof rack I've got and the 18in wheels I don't get anywhere near any of the figures you lot do!! Was ragging mine down the motorway the other day averaging about 24mpg! Brimmed the tank and the range said 370 miles!! :)

I can see why your stage-name is envy!

Presume yours is diesel? Can't you remove part of your roof rack (assuming side bars and cross-pieces..) I think a RR is one of the worst culprits for soaking fuel consumption.

I've never ragged mine - too careful looking after it. I have found that if I do push it (Dualogic box) the gear changes (clutch actuator) are faster than normal town traffic changes. I never use the full auto at the moment as I change gear sooner than it does ergo I feel my economy is better. Suppose I could try all 3 ways, full-auto, full-auto on 'E' setting and manual.
I get really annoyed being told by the beep that I can't select 4th or 5th at the speed I want to change up though - when I drive my Mum's Pewgot 107 (semi-auto like my Fiorino) I can shift into whatever gear whenever I want and don't get some 'computer says no' bleeping at me! Wish I could turn that off.
Does anyone have a list of OBD codes that are accessible to us mortals for what we can activate/de-activate with that gadget in hand?

RVM You can rag a diesel van and still look after it! I've done 100's of thousands of miles in company diesel vans and am yet to break one!

My roof rack is the big bugger from citroen. It'd not cross bars on side rails. Not only does it cut my mpg down, but it's soooooooo noisy!! I really want to get side bars with removable cross bars.

Flat out in 5th with a slight headwind and the bugger wouldn't go over 75mph! that was a 24mpg journey!
