21mpg out of a TD? You got something wrong there.

Even the auto should get 30 easily

Even with standard chip and auto, should get better than that! I would try and figure the cause of the low mpg before changing bits.

Reset your trip, average speed, and mpg too as well to get an accurate reading.

Also, if you display has ever been changed for a non TD one, then it won't be accurate.

The wiper stalk has 2 buttons on the end.... S & R. S = switch/scan through the screens, R = reset, hold it for 2 or 3 seconds on the average mph and mpg screens and it'll reset them :y
