I cleaned the maf last night, disconnected the battery for 2 hours etc etc.
Driving to work this morning and the mileage as indicated by the scangauge has improved dramatically!!!
Is it too early to be excited? Do I need to reset the scan gauge? Everything else seems normal, boost, temperature, rpm

Actually I used to unplug it so it didn't sit in the sun on my dash board so I spose I don't need to reset it! Woo Hoo! Massive improvement in economy by the look!!

I wouldn't go off the gauge personally, although pretty accurate I would fill up/drive/fill up again to full and work out the economy allowing % differential for bigger tyres, etc . ie. I'm 6% out on 33's
Hoping you get an improvement tho
