chasdrury Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 Well, I am seeking admission now. In my 94 80 TDi Saloon with 173k on the clock I am getting between 56 and 58 mpg every tanks. No rough DIS calcs here, but volumes used and miles driven..... Chaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustynuts Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 I'm out of the club I'm afraid. I figure you kinda need a car for this, and the van doesn't get up to the 50's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntW Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 [ QUOTE ] Dis 1 resets every journey (as long as stopped for more than 30 mins I think) Di2 doesnt reset unless you reset it. I think most people are not averaging the figures they say on here from day one but for a journey on Dis1. But not for 50 yards or rest once moving etc! [/ QUOTE ] Didn't think to check DIS2 as that was after a 35 minute drive so it wasn't just a short run. 2.0 TDi DSG... so can be done in autos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 That's me tendering my resignation from the 50mpg club. It's been 2.5 years, but time to scare myself silly with a petrol engine for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fizzbitt Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 after years of 20mpg without even putting my foot down i cant wait to see what 50mpg is like.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustynuts Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 50mpg should see you hit close to 600 miles per tank. That's the realistic way of measuring it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzbitt Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 im presuming the bora tdi has a 55/60 litre tank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustynuts Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 55 (ish). I managed to get nearly 65ltrs in mine once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzbitt Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 im also then presuming it has 10 litres after the low fuel light comes on then. hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustynuts Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 The warning light comes on with about 9 litres left in the tank IIRC. so if you fill up when the light comes on you'll get about 45 - 47ltrs in as standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzbitt Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 cool.. as i thought then. Cheers for the info.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wobby Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 Anyone here use BP Ultimate Diesel? We have BP fuel cards so i have filled up twice with it. I could now be a member of the club. Averaging 52 on Dis, but 54mpg on calculation. Only used to get 47-48 with normal stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
