Default 2.0TDi Manual MPG

Hi all

I have just taken delivery of an A6 2.0TDi 177 SE in ibis white and will get some photos up soon!

Just wanted to report my MPG figures taken from the OBC over the past week. I have been pleasantly surprised as even though the engine is brand new and very tight, on my 30 mile commute with approx. half of that on A roads, I averaged 50.4 today and that is with just 400 miles on the clock. On the whole tank, the halfway point has just been reached and I have covered 303 miles. I am very happy with this and also just how smooth an quiet the new VAG tdi engine is. I reckon that after a few thousand miles, I should consistently be able to get into the 50s.

Cheers.

Hi,
Had my 2.0 TDi S-Line manual for just over a week now and the best I've got is 47 mpg. Nearly have 400 miles on the clock - apparently the engine is quite tight for the first 1000 miles.

Love the car!!

I have done about 500 miles since taking delivery on 2nd March. First 200 miles averaged late 30s. Playing with gadgets, new engine etc.

next 300 averaging 43 to 44 mpg in a mixture of stop start traffic, and some motorway. Certainly not bad for the kind of journeys. If it inches upwards a few mpg in coming months, that will be fantastic.

Haven't touched Eco mode yet

I have done around 400 miles as well. Average across the whole tank so far is showing as 45 on the OBC, but I did get 50 the other day on my usual commute. I reckon it will definitely start inching up when the engine gets run in.

I have never had a car with such as quiet and refined ride before! I love it

Imagine if we got a FWD 2.0T here. I suspect EPA hwy mpg might get close to 35. Of course, you can't touch the diesels in city driving.

I know y'all are quoting Imperial MPGs and it makes people in the USA envious of the numbers.

The conversion is quite simple - take approximately 80% and you have U.S. MPG. So 45 becomes 36
