    MPG bad but I expected that...

    This is fuel to fuel reading not off the DIS.

    What was the DIS showing in comparison? I have never done that but think I may have to to see how far out it is!

    My DIS is typically over-optimistic by about 5%, although it varies from 3-9%.

    That really is quite low! That's almost (18.9mpg) what I used to get with an A8 4.2 Quattro!

    Sorry, I meant I used to get 18.9mpg on the A8 I had! Which is quite close to your 21.74mpg. I think you could put that down to first-tank fun and running in though

    Yeh, I think it will be about that for a couple of months.

    Its always nice when the car is run in, as you see the mpg slowly creeping up. Still, enjoyment is far more important than mpg
