Sitting at 65 it averaged around 28mpg.

It had the restricted performance light on the dashboard and the engine management light on too so not sure if that could be doing anything to affect the economy.

David, mine did about that at that speed and around 20mpg around town, I always thought that was OK for the performance it offered.... Thumbs Up Pete

Thanks Pete Smile

Handy to have another to reference it against. It was using less then my 4.2 does so was quite happy at that.

I ask because my 3.6 was returning just over 30 on a run up to Aberdeen earlier this week , doing around 65mph and I rarely see anything over 20 around town, so it’s certainly closer than I had imagined.

Certainly food for thought Whistle Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

That's the direct injected modern petrol 5.0 Compared to the much older 4.2... The 5.0 is much more like a diesel in its design with its direct injection fuel system...

TD or V8, consumption is much closer now with the 5.0... Thumbs Up

Really looking forward to your 'adventures' with this David - hopefully they won't be as immense as the 4.2SC.. well for us it would be really interesting but I fear for the health of your wallet Very Happy

Looks smart! Nice to see the proper sized reg plate too.

Slightly stunned by the MpG as well, my TDV8 was only 1mpg more than that at similar speeds

I hate looking at Range Rovers with the wrong sized plate on them.

I’ll be putting my plate on this at some point but I’ve got the proper sized one that Rob at Duckworths sorted me out with.

I've been thinking about this more and more and doing even more reading online, especially on the American forums...

From what I've managed to piece together, when the chain tensioners on the 5.0 start to wear you feel a misfire and will get misfire codes appear before you get a Crankshaft/Camshaft correlation fault appear.

This car has zero chain rattle and not once on the 426 mile journey home did I feel the slightest of misfires. Not even when climbing the lanes to the house at low revs.

There are no misfire codes stored either, the only code stored when I collected the car was:

Quote:
P0016-00 (EC) Crankshaft position - camshaft position correlation - bank 1, sensor 1


The seller hadn't moved the car for 3 weeks before I collected the car so it had sat for a long time without being started and it was as quiet as my XFR is when it starts.

Prior to starting it for the first time, I cleared the codes off the car and before the car had finished cranking there was a reduced performance light back on the dashboard with the same error code.

Would the car know that quickly that something wasn't right?

I've read online about the camshaft phasers giving problems and there's information out there on how to troubleshoot them. Replacing them means taking the chains off anyway so it'd make sensor to do the whole lot.

However, I'm wondering if it could be as simple as a camshaft sensor? If I swap Bank 1 Sensor 1 with Bank 2 Sensor 1, it'll be interesting to see if the fault moves with the sensor.

Having had my IID tool on the car tonight monitoring the live values, I can see that there’s about a 5 degree difference between the intake cam on Bank 1 and Bank 2.

I’m convinced I could hear a little chain rattle off it tonight when it started as well.

Chain kit it is then Smile Just waiting for Rob at Duckworths to come back to me with a cost for the timing kit now.

I guess it’s best to get that out the way now, been following a guy in the US doing the replacement and he has had a nightmare with it.

Prevention is key Thumbs Up
