How accurate are MPG claims by manufacturers? It seems that they can do these tests in perfect lab conditions and there is also some leeway in the speeds they have to maintain.
I'm assuming that an auto is more likely to be accurate than a manual. The most shocking figures seem to come on Turbo's with the tests being typically run off boost and on boost MPG figures are half of those claimed!
What has been your experience? How much do you add to the MPG figures to make it accurate?
