Firstly, check that you're recording the MPG correctly. Details can be found here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/faq/fuel-consumption

Real MPG enables you to register the fuel economy you are actually getting against your make and model of car, its engine and type of transmission.
Every time you enter an average consumption figure against your car, the overall average automatically adjusts to reflect it.
