What kind of gas mileage are you getting?
 
I'm getting about 23-24 around town if I keep it in Tip mode and shift it at low rpms. On the highway about 30-31 depending on traffic conditions and my speed. This is a 2003 Avant 1.8T.

Yep, I'm getting right around the same in my 99 2.8qm - it still surprises me that this car is so good on gas, considering the curb weight, quattro, awd, and short gearing. Not complaining though:)

I've only been getting ~23.5 lately (rarely using Tip mode);been doing quite a bit of city driving, though.

Back in the day when gas was a fair price i could joy ride in the mountains with all those fun twisty windy hills and climbs. But now.....now.....im always watching the mpg [sm=boohoo.gif]
One of my friends almost bought an A4 because he glanced at the screen and too his amazement '56.00' mpg.........

In town, (L.A.), I average 19 mpg. I drove to San Diego last week and averaged 22 mpg. I'm not a hardcore throttler, but I do make a lot of short trips around town, so perhaps the frequent starting and stopping is eating up ga$?

I've only had my 2.8qt avant for a few weeks and i've averaging on 22-23 on mostly freeway driving, 75-80mph, 87 octane. I just boosted the tire pressure to 40psi all around to see if that improves things at all. Going to try a few tanks of 92 octane next month to see if there's any difference... (not expecting much if any)

Gas mileage sucked BIG TIME on my '08 2.0T Multitronic Front Track. Probably getting around 20 mpg on city. I use (76) Super Unleaded.
