Bet you all thought it was bad news LOL!..well NO...Just the opposite...2011 jetta 6mt..70,000 miles on the ticker...owned around 7 years..never got more than 43 mpg before fix..after fix maybe 41..anyway got the kerma Q loader tune a few months ago ( lot more torque/pick-up,tires break loose way more than before!)..first long trip since tune (1400 miles round trip around 75-78 mph,fla. turnpike..Athens Ga. to Jupiter Fla.....done many times).. few hundred miles into it used around 1/4 tank, I went around 300 miles.. huh?..double checked..then went to 560 miles ( a little less than 1/2 tank!) mfd showing 55.6 mpg..yea right LOL."somethings not right". and filled it up 10,5 gallons ( always fill to the top)..hand calculated it.. got 53 mpg!..this can't be right?..total mileage same as scan gaugeII ( speedo/odo correct)....still can't believe it..so went thru part of another tank (580 miles on the way back) checked again.. 52.7 mpg..WOW!..How am I now getting 10+ miles per gallon over what I used to? Must be the Kerma tune and the engine finally broke in..LOL!..,,,I have 4 TDI's ( 2013 2015 passats 2011 and 2000 jetta's) even my alh never got this good..very happily surprised! But really..how?? Yea I know.. don't look a gift horse in the mouth!
