So I do not really believe that your van runs more economically at constant 65 than at constant(!) 40 mph.
Best Regards,

Well isn't that just tough, because it does, in fact did.
The Quickshift box will not allow 40mph in 6th in either auto or manual mode and the trip computer does show 65mph in 6th to be more economical than 40mph in 4th/5th.
All I can say is that a gentle meander around the empty roads of the Western Isles last month brought my o/a consumption down well below 30mpg. Whereas the drive home down the A.1 at the aforementioned 65mph allowed it to climb back up to 33mpg.
However I am not prepared to try travelling along a main road like the A.1 (and certainly not any motorway) at a steady 40mph just in case you may be right.
Hi, just got back from Lincoln motorhome show what a fanstastic weekend, whilst there I came across a gadget for reducing fuel consumption on all types of vehicles, it was called the Sunpulse unit, is there anyone who has tried it and does it work ?
Hi Glyn,
It seems that the answer to your question would be that no responding member has tried the Sunpulse gadget, so there has been no one that can give an experience based judgement about its effectivity.
