If there wasnt anything engine managment logged/found in jan , id be a little suspect on the fpr/fuel pump being on the way out, more so the fpr if your hot starts are ok.
they seem to throw a "bank x" type code, or a more specific one.

Lovely records on when/what was service/changed.
and a bit of a "hum" with everything being as it should be service/temps and running when started.


one thing i have noticed on mine , if DRL is "on" and its chilly (- temps to +4/5) mine can take 2-3 tries of the key to start, and or a tiny bit of throttle. (suspect its down to the use mine gets/battery condition) more so than a fault with the car. but if your batterys cold or not 100% perhaps swapping to DRL = off and seeing how it responds for a month may shed a bit of light on what , if anything is iffy.

32mpg is the book, 28,, isnt too far of it, hills/driving style/traffic etc , its enough to think "humm" without it being enough to say "aha ! X"
