10K km on my Jeep Compass in 6 months with a fuel consumption of Rs 73K
- I feel that the engine really opened up after 9,000 km. In some situations, the mid-range turbo pull is more than I anticipate.

I feel that the engine really opened up after 9,000 km. In some situations, the mid-range turbo pull is more than I anticipate.
BHPian CrAzY dRiVeR recently shared this with other enthusiasts.
Having now done over 9000kms, I feel the 2.0 Multijet has really opened up nicely. Especially since the last drive to Kochi and back.
Earlier I used to feel the engine is a bit strained in the midrange, and I assumed this would be a characteristic of the BS6 motors. Now I feel the midrange turbo pull is more than I anticipate in some situations. The car just takes off (obviously not in the literal sense!) in third if the turbo spools properly. The performance doesn’t feel all that less compared to the BS4 cars now.

Here’s what BHPian abhaumik had to say about the matter:
Congratulations on the 10K milestone and wishes for many more miles. That is some driving in 6 months.
I’m 7KM short of the 500KM break-in. Had a short 120KM outstation drive mostly on state highways. Got a mileage of 16.4 KM/L, mostly kept it to 65-70 KM/H with a few times touching the 80 mark.
