Hi querty2008,
Is yours a 2.7Lt or a 3.0Lt.
I found that my D4 3.0Lt uses slightly more fuel than my D3 2.7Lt did, however, the 3.0Lt uses less fuel when towing.
My D3 also had a ECU power upgrade, which helped the economy.
The econcomy should improve with more miles on the clock. If you are concerned, take it back to the dealer.
Cheers, Craig
