Mostly Halifax to Sydney and return. SG reported 5.7l/100Km. Left SG Cal at -12.6%. Why is it so friggen hard to get the SG calibrated to something conservative?

The last fill up was with the screwed up VW 'miss-fill' mod installed so I may not have filled the car up entirely at that time. I had the mod removed so we're back to normal now. SG reported 6.7 l/100 Km and I left the SG cal at -12.6%

Sucky Sucky tank. Almost down to fumes and only 728 Km. Left SG Cal at -12.6%. It reported 6.9l/100Km. Hillcrest VW had installed some sort of gate or friggen thing in my fuel port and it screws up fueling horribly. I will call tomorrow to have them revert it to an intelligent system.
