Smile Peugeot 406 estate 2.0 16v auto box

Hi
Have been busy fixing and fiddling with a couple of things. Fix major maf problem and blowing exhaust. Fitted a coroplast engine undertray as orginal went missing before i bought it. Pumped tyres up to 44psi 6psi over recomended. Now appear to be on for my first 500mile+ tank. Was on 37mpg imperial before above work. Epa at 55mph is 40mpg imperial. Now close to 45mpg imperial (guessimate of fuel gauge). Will fill up sun or mon and give actual figure. Last weeks mid teens celcius has been replaced by 0c and snow showers. As i start work at 4am no sun to remove frost snow etc etc and warm up times longer. Seems to be very reasonable as i cannot coast with engine on will break auto box. Lucky to have lock up in 3rd and 4th.
