Just popped into the fiesta section for a squiz and came upon this thread. While its great this update seems to make the fiesta even more economical i'm a bit puzzled. I know greenfoam's car is one of the oldest but someone needs to get in contact with a service manager or even Ford's engineering to get an answer on this. Not just because your car's could be running alot better but also because its not clear which car's have it, which car's need the update etc.

As noted, when caradvice did a review the fiesta was very frugal. Also, the ADR numbers are 6.1 combined, 8.1 urban, 4.9 extra urban. So reports of fuel use as high as 5.5-6.0 when cruising on the highway always confused me a bit anyway. A manual WS fiesta should be in the 4s quite easilly at constant speed cruise (at least below 110km/h).
