What miles per gallon should I be getting from a volvo s70 2.4 automatic (non turbo, with only 1 person in the car)? Its displaying
22.5 at the moment with from a mixture of road conidtions. Is that a bit low?
UK or US mpg?
If US, sounds about right, a touch on the low side perhaps.

It's about right given the fact that temperature, altitude, driving habits and driving situation all have a big impact on mpg.
I used to get around 24 mpg in normal mixed use from a V70 2.4 LPTurbo estate, my 2.5 20v (same engine) Renault Safrane would do anywhere between
17 and 37 mpg...
Since its a UK car I presume its UK mpg? Is 22.5 low? Seems like its due a service , could this have an impact on it? Surely if its due a service you would think they would have designed it to stay lit all the time? I have been mistakenly thinking it just satyed on for the first 2 mins as some kind of test thing.
How much should a service cost for one of these?
Just to note, this is a UK car, so it will UK mpg. Not sure how that differes to US mpg?
US gallons are smaller..
Depends on the mileage and what needs doing!!! (cue how long is a piece of string)

I thought everything in the US was bigger ! ;-)

Low 20s in local driving, high 20s to low 30s at steady state highway running is pretty much normal for these.
