Sooo DccD.... MPG?
So on long dull motorway drives, is it more fuel effecient to put the DCCD to rear, thus acting as a RWD car.
Or have I lost the plot and this makes no difference? Happy to be shot down in flames. |
Good question pal I'd like to know myself but guessing I don't think it would make a difference to be honest:wonder:

More importantly, who cares? Lol.
You are still using 100% ofor the drive just at 30-70 instead of 50-50 or what ever it is..... |
I wouldn't think it would make a difference, as said above, you're still distributing the power across all wheels.
|
Wouldnt have thought it would have made any difference as you are still traveling at X mph and at XX revs
|
It makes zero difference, the dccd does not make the car rwd it just distributes torque, the car is perm awd.
|
DCCD in open diff doesn't make it RWD.
|
If it did help increase mpg surely the open setting would be best to help reduce any resistance from the locking forces of the diff.
|
If your worried about MPG in a scooby..... Sell it and buy a diesel golf lol
Having the diff in full lock isnt recommended on the road anyway, either use auto or if oldskool just stay bottom light then up one or 2 if need be in wet. |
Personally I think the scoob feels quicker in full auto. Almost as if it's a bit sleepy in anything but auto. That being said, I haven't ever used it in full lock yet.

It does makes a small almost negligible difference to the MPG when the diff is fully open on a long run.
