Default Re: mb mondeo 2.3l

Can't help with oil consumption, but re. performance, what fuel are you running it on? The 2.3L is designed to run on 95 octane and, anecdotally, the biggest difference I notice with the Mondeo is better tractability at lower engine speeds with 95/98 compared to 91. Not a huge change, but you can tell the difference.

The higher octane fuel also appears to deliver better fuel economy - not enough to recoup the extra cost, but it does help.
