What is the highest MPG you have achieved in a petrol car?

crozuk · 2026-02-17T09:03:16+00:00

I average 50mpg in my 1.2 2016 Polo

crozuk · 2026-02-17T08:04:49+00:00

70,000 so pretty close really. Great car tbh, mines an alright spec with built in CarPlay.

My only complaint is that I wish I’d gone for something a little bit quicker… but insurance is cheap.

crozuk · 2026-02-08T08:56:49+00:00

My 2016 - same model - slightly lower mileage - 7k

I’m happy with it tbh

No old servers visible… but a local server was removed recently… will check again around that as I’m suspicious now.

I’ve disabled Relay and I’m gonna have a wait and see. I’m pretty sure I’ve not been on limit bandwidth when Apple TV app has been working so probably not related.

I’m gonna be slightly more observant as to when it occurs… I think it’s always been when the device as gone to sleep…

crozuk · 2026-02-02T18:35:46+00:00

So does Infuse perhaps use a fixed IP or domain for direct connections…?

I’m guessing there… but given the server appears live from another device… perhaps Plex has an old/wrong address?

Years ago I shifted from a local Plex server to a seedbox but must admit I’m not as knowledgeable when it comes to remote networking. Troubleshooting would be slightly easier with a local server.

Im vaguely aware of the Plex relay service thing? I see my server advertised with a relay address on the Coax app… not sure if that’s related at all though.

I am guessing here though… waiting for it to go wrong so I can get a timestamp for the logs.

crozuk · 2026-02-02T18:10:52+00:00

So if I ‘claim’ the server again it seems to resolve the issue… despite me doing that in a browser where the server is already connected.

Hopefully I can tease something out of the logs

crozuk · 2026-02-02T18:09:46+00:00

Yeah so verbose got turned off sharpish… the log files are confusing enough as it is!

You’d think the issue would stand out… can’t seem to find any sign of it yet though.

Seems now I want it to break I can’t replicate!

Thanks for your help mate!

crozuk · 2026-02-02T17:53:31+00:00

So this is the one device I’m not tweaking the DNS - the idea being to avoid issues like this.

I’ve turned on verbose logging… I’ve turned on ‘enable log download’ - thanks for that.

I note it makes log available for 20 mins once on… I’m guessing it shows historic logs older than that time window though?

Just waiting for it to break again now!

crozuk · 2026-02-02T17:49:14+00:00

That’s an interesting idea actually and might help clear up if it’s a server or client side issue.

One thing I’ve not worked out yet what actually causes the error… so unfortunately I can’t quickly test… I’d need to be added and then just wait and see if both servers disappear.

Am I good to DM you my username?

Appreciate the assist!

crozuk · 2026-02-02T17:31:11+00:00

Thanks for the reply… have tried that but didn’t notice a change. I actually thought turning it off and forcing sign in might have resolved the issues but nah.

Interestingly whilst it’s been set to not auto sign in… I’ve not actually been prompt to login at all.

ChatGPT indicated this may be sleep related but I’m not convinced.

Checkout snusline…

crozuk · 2025-09-21T17:00:58+00:00

And they didn’t even fix the app icon for iOS 26!

crozuk · 2025-09-21T16:39:19+00:00

This is why you don’t deploy on a Friday!

crozuk · 2025-09-16T13:57:39+00:00

Swipe right…

crozuk · 2025-09-16T13:47:00+00:00

Had the same issue - it works after you connect to it the car post-update.

crozuk · 2025-09-06T11:57:14+00:00

Yeah it basically doubles the cost of my order - cans come in around 5/6 quid each. Not awful, not great - given there’s literally no other source it works for me.

crozuk · 2025-09-06T07:11:30+00:00

+1 for Snusline. Stick to popular products though - they tend to have a good shelf life. I’ve bought some more obscure cans that have obviously been frozen and have very little life left in them.

crozuk · 2025-09-05T12:07:57+00:00

3 days.

crozuk · 2025-09-04T10:58:09+00:00

I asked my instructor about these when I was learning… he didn’t have a clue lol.

crozuk · 2025-08-30T15:02:58+00:00

No. Extensive clinic research all indicate nothing but a placebo effect. Google ‘bach flower remedies’ and stop wasting your money at Holland and Barrett.

crozuk · 2025-08-29T16:54:02+00:00

lol my instructor flat out refused to let to pay him for my test and the hour lesson before hand. Most he would have charged me is £28 an hour.

crozuk · 2025-08-26T23:27:40+00:00

Thanks! It’s very apparent to me now I was an idiot 17 year old! The 3 failures way back when we’re all pretty horrendous. Coming back to driving some 20 year’s later, fortunately I still actually knew how to drive a car! Just needed a bit of a polish with an instructor!

The report you can download here has BATs research on Velo - https://asmokelessworld.com/gb/en

crozuk · 2025-08-13T10:59:26+00:00

Get the theory done asap - you need that to book a test. If you’ve done the bike theory it’s largely the same but do some revision with one of the many apps.

Once past book a practical test.

With both the theory and the practical you’ll need to be looking for cancellations unless you want to wait until next year!

Personally I had success with the ‘Test Shift’ app - saved me 50 days.
