I'm averaging 30-32 with 50/50 driving, shifting with paddles in DS as per usual. Certainly a 7-9 mpg increase deserves credibility on the injector swap, but not sure how it was ever approved.

Connected battery charger and performed short test, found no faults in DDE.
Checked engine sensor values for any abnormalities. Found fuel injector quantity adaptation values excessively high. Ran injector test plan, found injectors faulty. Replaced all 6 injectors, performed calibrations, reset adaptations and road tested OK. No other faults found"

It was a $3,800 job according to my SA.
