It all boils down to driving style. With ID1000 injectors she will drink a lot of fuel if you give it WOT.

Like Steve said if you always taking off fast from the lights and giving it a thrashing then it will drink heaps.

I normally average between 13l-15l/100km. 13 when I take it easy and 15 when I give it a hard time.

Then again my car has 310rwkw with an 11psi tune.

Your car has 362rwkw on an 18psi tune which I would way flows more than mine.

How old is your upstream 02 sensor?

Speaking of which I'm probably due another replacement now I passed 250 thou...I've read that a bung one can cause poor fuel usage

Fresh O2 sensors made a difference for me!

At 105000km the originals got to the point of setting the engine light on. Fuel consumption was at 16l/100km.

Swapped both O2 sensors for new NTK ones and fuel consumption dropped to 11.5l/100km. Noticeably smoother idle too
