Of course, the next question is, why was it 5 degrees retarded?
Did your mechanic set it that way? Have a good talk to your mechanic.
If yes, and a gentle talk, and finding it an honest mistake, you most probably get very good service after this.
Or is it something on the car that has gone out of adjustment?

What is it Diesel or unleaded and what economy do you get,I have a 3.5ltr and have been told that there is not much you can do in the way of a tune up,is this true ,I get around 6.5 to 7 ks per litre with 31x10.50 around town.

Shane,
I had a DOHC 3.5lt some time back and used to get about 16lt/100km round town and when towing it used to go up as high as 25-30lt/100km.
It was tuned properly and the fuel bill was part of the reason for selling it, but in the time I had it, it was very reliable.
Cheers Trevor.
