My mom is considering getting an Audi A4, but she's not too tech savvy, so I'm doing this for her. Our neighbor has one and she really likes it, and we're going to look at them this weekened. He told her that the A4 (Non-Convertible) has 30MPG. Is this correct?

Thanks,
Manson

 

The 1.8t and fwd can. Thequattro 1.8tand 2.8 V6's wont. The quattro 1.8t will be a little lower and the V6's will be lower still

 

do you know what year(s) you guys want?

 

Most likely '07

 

Make sure she gets the quattro.

 

it all depends on how she drives, flooring it will never get her 30 MPG, however, if she drives conservatively then possibly many factors come into play here. btw get quattro, it is my favorite (one of) on the car...

it depends on driving condition and transmission
but audi claims on the 2007 2.0t

FWD 6speed 23/34
FWD CVT 24/32
(wierd that CVT is lower then a manual?)
quattro 6speed 22/31
quattro tiptonic 22/30

City driving? If your looking for MPG I would go the the Jap's for that. The 2.0T should be able to get it but the first time she starts hitting that 2800rpm range well... Power can become a drug. What's her driving habits that will help us know what to say.

2.0T fwd can get 30mpg
2.0T quattro you'll get 28ish "Its Worth The Loss"

 

my 1.9td Citroen xantia estate does 55 mpg and guess what you don't have them over thereyet

 

Depends on a lot of things. If you search "gas mileage" or something similar you should find some threads regarding this from not too long ago. I can tell you that my 145k mile 2.8 30V will reliably get 32mpg on the highway with windows up or vented and AC off. Several other 30V guys replied also with similar mileage. MPG in the 30s is definitely possible and not all that uncommon provided the car is cared for. Replacing the coolant temp sensor and O2 sensors can go a long way toward improving mileage as well, on any engine in the A4. A full tune-up is not a bad idea either (new fluids/filters/plugs/wires will help from this).
