s50 fuel consumption

Also forgot to mention that when I accelerate let's say from 1st gear and I take my foot the throttle at around 4500rpm, I hear a sound from the exhaust that sounds like there's a piece of metal bouncing up and down inside the exhaust.

I also get that sound and some have said that it would be the propshaft coupling. Not sure though

I found the source of that sound, it was the exhaust bracket that bolts to the exhaust that was loose.

Okay great, at least it's sorted. I should check mine out as well. My car was out of action for a while with a bust radiator. Came back running like the bomb.....luckily there was no damage when it overheated
