My car now has about 5800 miles on it. Has had the initial oil change. I have never reset the long term mileage computer and I am now up to an overall average of 27.3 mpg. I have checked the short term mileage at every fillup and it is always within 0.2 mpg of what I calculate using the top off method. I am still getting in the mid 30s mpg on long distance road trips cruising at or slightly above the speed limit.

Which engine and is it Quattro? What type of terrain do you usually drive? The overall of 27.3 sounds spectacular. My friend gets less than that with his stick shift 2010 Nissan Sentra - impressive! I never use the car's real-time mileage computer - it confuses me. I can be going 65 and it reads 46 mpg, then if I hit a hill it drops to 18. What is the long term mileage computer function and how do I access it? I would like to compare my calculated record of all my fill-ups to the car's long term mileage computer and see how they compare. I haven't reset anything on the car except the trip odometer so it should all be there if I know where to look. Thanks.

Mine reads 23.3mpg at 10500 miles with 95% confidence accuracy as compared to calculated data.

2012 2.0T FWD CVT. 32.3mpg as shown in my fuelly.com gas log. I've tracked every fill-up, and done 13,000 miles.

I do more than 50% highway miles, but can get really good mileage in the city as well by trying to keep a steady speed, timing red lights, etc.

The CVT gets amazing mileage once you learn how to drive it economically. That is, you can keep the engine at around 1,500 rpm where there is plenty of low end torque.

Waiting to see what real world mileage people get from the TDI diesel, but then again, it costs $10k more than the 2.0T CVT.

My car has 10k miles on it (2013 A6 2.0t premium plus,sports suspension, 19' inch wheels). I am getting 20.1 mpg with combination of 95% of city driving and 5% of highway driving however it is way better than my 2006 G35 coupe(20' wheels,sports suspension)which will give around 14 - 15 mpg.

I guess, if you drive most of the time around city with stop and go traffic for every mile you will get around 20 - 22 MPG.

Car: 2.0T Quattro.

80% highway/20% urban

5800 miles - long term avg is 27.3

Have 2 small mountains, OK big hills, about 1K ft. that I have to go over on my daily commute.

Flat interstate driving I easily get in the mid 30's.
