Yesterday, I finally got around to "burp" the engine coolant. Since this required idling the engine for a while, I used the opportunity to measure idle fuel consumption.
I used the FCD and one of the trip meters and recorded the change in mpg (with the miles obviously staying constant) to calculate the gas used for the 15 minutes I was idling the engine.
With the engine warm (6 bars) it came to 0.5 l/h (or 0.13 gallons / hour).
Just thought I'd share that...
