The guy who has done it also did a "de-gunge" of the intake system I think around the same time - will ask them later. Also pondering a remap for economy but at £3-400 it would take quite a few miles to recoup assuming it did make a difference.

Looking back on the last tank I also expected higher - it was 650-ish miles and out of that I did about 250 on a business trip which meant not being in town and therefore should have been better.
