I have a 1.5L diesel, I get 38mpg around town and highway. I got 32mpg pulling a trailer with a motorcycle on it at 65mph in 30*F
The 1.5L is pretty well worn out. By manufacturer specifications it is no longer a serviceable engine and needs replacement. mfg wear limit for compression 398psi or 40psi difference between cylinders.
I am at 310, 350, 370, 370.
I have a 1.9TD from a 95 jetta going in it this summer. Just making sure its bottom end is nice and tight so it can provide me some good service.
