Gas Mileage?

How's the gas mileage on TT's? I really like them and am looking at buying one, so you can see why I'm interested.

AWD people see mainly 26-28mpg with a chip and mixed driving. I have FWD and usually get 30-32mpg mixed and i beat on my car.

RE: Gas Mileage?

I'm getting 28mpg, driving like a grandpa going to/from work (75% highway, 25% city), but on weekends and evenings, I drive fun. My car is chipped and has a aftermarket intake.

Mine is an '02 225q coupe.

That seems rather low. I would do the old tried and true method with topping it off, run it, and then top it off again and then compare miles/gal. I wouldnt take the display as fact.

RE: Gas Mileage?

I would trust the display... it measures gas used directly by the injectors. I get about 24mph on 93 octane, 225 q with a chip.

18-20 mostly in stop& go commutting traffic during the week. I can get over 30 purely on the Hwy on trips.

Switching to the train next week for the commute. Damn gas prices.
