Hi All,

Have just completed my first week of Allroad ownership and apart from a little discomfort from the Recaro's, I am very impressed.

I was wondering what the average fuel consumption is for the TDI (mine is Tiptronic). I was hoping to achieve 35mpg but am struggling to get 28. I expect matters to improve a little once it has a few more miles on the clock but 35mpg is looking like a tough target! I suspect that it is not my driving style as my TT 225 returns around 32 MPG over the same routes.

the allroad does weigh like ~4000 lbs tho, dont it? tip will make a difference......

Improves a little - Ive had in the high forties / low fifities on a long run, but average 32-33 most of the time, I have 6 speed, but also have a lightbar which knocks 10% off at high speed.

My allroad TDI tip make 25 mpg at 90/95 mph
