Hi and welcome.
Is there a reason you bought a terrano for 70mph toll road use. A fuel station fetish perhaps?

Lol no fuel station fetish
More for family reasons my family was out growing my BMW 1 series coupe lol

MPG does depend a bit on what pump you have if a Bosch and a light foot 27 on a run if a Zexel more likely 21, I have both, but my Zexel motor is fully loaded at all times, Rick

 

[Kevrob9]

Sorry pal you might as well be talking another language!
How do I check the pump? And what do you mean by fully loaded??

Look at the MAF on the air inlet if Bosch then Bosch pump, if Hitachi then Zexel, fully loaded means my motor is just that fully loaded with kit 247 probably goes 2.5 tonnes all the time, one box alone takes two to lift, Rick

My 2004 2.7 TDi averages about 27 mpg with mixed driving. I've tried to improve on that but driving like a saint only seems to give me about +1 mpg. Towing the caravan takes me down to about 22 mpg.

Oh, and welcome :thumb2

Hi Kev and welcome aboard. These are great motors, had mine since 2002 and another as a project car. Sadly given the class of vehicle don't expect economy, the 3.0 litre is better than the 2.7 for economy but I personally prefer the 2.7. No need to worry about timing belts or chains, these are gear driven and have a proven pedigree. If you are not confident about it's history then I would give it a good service with correct spec of oils too.
As you've found out there's a lot of banter on here as well as great info. As we've found out recently it's a close knit community on here too but newcomers are always welcome.

Enjoy your new truck and ask away if you have any problems.

By the way I access here with an ipad, galaxy s3 phone amd computers. I keep getting a message pestering about tapatalk app but the more it pesters the more I resist.
