Hi all
Been a member of the site picking up useful info for the last couple of months or so. Nice one everybody!
I now have a new (to me) 2007 2.0 (136) Tdi A6 S-line multitronic Avant in Aero blue loaded with a crate load of gizmo's plus the AMI ipod interface I had fitted last week. Really chuffed.
2 questions tho:
1. How economical should this car be? We (well rather her indoors ;)) have been driving it for a couple of weeks now and seem to be getting 33-34mpg. Seems a little low to me - was expecting somewhere into the 40's bearing in mind we live in a village and have to travel some distance to civilisation.
2. Since getting rid of my 2006 1.9 tdi Ibiza, I have a spare diesel chip, that I believe fits this car. On removing the engine cover, I expected to find the diesel manifold with a temperature sensor on the end. No such luck! Does anyone know where the connector is? Or does this need a different chip.
I may be in for a remap in the future, but as I've skint myself buying the car, I want to see if the kit I already have will give me a bit extra.
Thanks for any reponses.
