    306ps avg mpg and service interval

    Hi new on here but been lurking a while and am about on d2.net and ffrr forums.

    Was just wondering what sort of mpg do people get out of the 306ps sdv6?

    Plus how often are they requiring service? Have heard a few horror stories every 5k or less with dpf regens getting the blame.

    2022 Discovery SDV6 HSE Carpathian Grey

    Mine is still on schedule to have its first service at 16000 miles / 1 year.

    My mpg varies a lot. Motorway cruising gets 35-40mpg, town traffic and country lanes get about 25 mpg,

    MY2019 D5 HSE 3.0 SDV6 - sold to a dealer for a crazy price!

    Thank you. Currently running a tdv8 4.4 with similar ps and mk1 figures but heavier vehicle. Just contemplating the change.

    In the D5 around June 2018, but it’s the same engine as in the RR Sport, which has it for some years now.

    I know not quite same, but my Td6, fuel economy never changed (sometimes perfectly acceptable, other surprisingly good) but as soon as it hit 18000 miles there was a noticeable step up in performance.
