I used to get 28-30 combined city + hwy when I bought my '83 300SD, I'm getting now 23-25... and that's with the ALDA turned to stock settings. If I turn it 1/2 turn CCW it gets a bit worse than that. My air and fuel filters are really overdue to be replaced though and I think that might explain the decrease. I got 37 MPG once, about 2 years ago. Those were the days... I really have to replace those filters next weekend
