I'll try some diptane over the xmas, I'm actually hoping its throwing up codes, might make it easier to get to the bottom of it!

The last tank I got 260 miles from it, I'm hoping with just motorway driving I'll be able to see 400. Did 440 in the clubsport once, she was running on fumes though!

At the moment I'm getting worse mileage than the M3!
Check out the manifold that ticking could be the onset of a crack. At least it was with mine. Could also explain high consumption.
