Ramap usually raises the mpg. 20 is low, so I would be looking at EGR issues and checking its service is up to date, air filter and fuel filters are fresh.

Up until a week ago when I had mine it was averaging 27 around town, a 6 mile run to work and back.

this is looking expensive.. I think I'll drop the oil and filters myself see if there's any improvement... I'm sure I read on here somewhere how to test if egr valves are working... Can't seem to find the post now... I don't think I can blank off being my07

Well not wanting to speak too soon but... I read another post on here regarding the cleaning of the map sensor, with the only tool required being a t20 driver I set to work.
