Polo 1.6CL(100BHP) Drinking Problem - kennybase
Hi everyone

I've recently started driving my beloved Polo again after about 3 months of only using it every few weeks just to warm the engine up and make sure it was still running.

I drove it again till it was down to the red on the petrol guage, then filled it up - and then noticed that it was going down a lot quicker than before. I used to get about 360miles from a full tank. This time, I've only got about 280miles!!

I am going to give it a few more full tanks just to make sure, but is there anything else that i could be looking at in the mean time?

(I've checked the brakes etc and they're all fine)

Thanks in advance

Binding brakes, dirty air filter, slight leak somewhere, faulty fuel regulator? Perhaps it will improve on its own with a bit more use, also a dose of fuel system cleaner wont hurt!
