danksy · 11-01-2007, 04:19 PM

So what are you guys getting..

Since i have had mine i have averaged 59.4mpg over the 7,000 miles i have done in it [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/169144-ok.gif[/img]

When i first got it, over the first 3,000 miles i notched up an average of 63.4mpg but soon got bored with that [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/169144-ok.gif[/img]

I get about 270 miles from a tank which if my maths is correct is about 45.8 mpg. This seems a little low to me, however it is 100% town driving. Little concerned that may be something amiss, especially if Dansky is getting what he is! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ECLIPSe.gif[/img]

A2's only have a 6 gallon tank?

danksy · 12-01-2007, 08:15 AM

42litres approx 9.25 gallons [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/169144-ok.gif[/img]

My maximum out of a tank has been 585 miles, but the dis has shown 735 before [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smashfreakB.gif[/img]

I normally get 200miles on half a tank with "town" driving [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/169144-ok.gif[/img]

Maybe paul has been measuring brim-to-brim and therefore been calculating based on what he put in rather than the actual max capacity [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/169144-ok.gif[/img]

What derivative of the A2 you all drive would be a great help when discussing MPG, if possible?

I have the 1.4 petrol and getting around 200-230, round town, from a full tank which costs around £25 at 92p per litre.

Therefore, this is almost 6 gallons for me meaning between 33mpg and 38mpg around town only!

My tank also costs about £24 to fill up from the reserve light coming on at about 92 pence per litre. So this is how I "calculated" the capacity to be about 6 gallons.

From this we achieve around 260 miles on average so this as from rough calcs is how I came to 45 mpg. My conversion may be a bit ropey!

I unfortunately do not have DIS [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] although I would like to retrofit etc but suspect its going to be a hefty job as new speedo etc.

It is the base model 1.4 tdi.
