Re: Real world MPG 2.0TDI
I would be really interested to hear about this also, just about to buy assuming some others post some reasonable MPG.
Re: Real world MPG 2.0TDI
vw jetta 57 plate 40,000 miles around town get 37 -39 on a run to manchester got about 47mpg as the A6 is a bigger more powerful car and such low milage sounds about right but may improve as the milage goes up, this is my first diesel car and i was disapointed with the milage thought i would get better mpg but it is mostly town driving i do
Re: Real world MPG 2.0TDI
Car gone back to the dealers today for investigation, they admit that the MPG does seem a little low and might improve with mileage but going to run some checks.
The run from Plymouth to the dealers (about 60 miles) is mainly fast A roads 40 to 70mph only got 43MPG, on my previous A4 B8 2.0T could get the same or slightly better, will let you know the results.
Re: Real world MPG 2.0TDI
A6 2.7tdi only just gone passed 11k and i get 34-35mpg round town and 40ish on a run and its auto. my older 57plate A6 2.7tdi would get 40ish round town and 45 mpg or more on a run but manual. on a run in my older car you could get lots more mpg if you was VERY careful. Yours sounds abit low for a 20tdi. The best diesel i had for mpg was my 54 plate mondeo 20tdci 130bhp manual which was only 3mths old when i got it and that did 49 mpg round town and 54mpg on a run doing 80-90ish
Re: Real world MPG 2.0TDI
Just collected the car from the dealers with no faults found, checked and reset settings?? They have said the MPG will improve with miles, and have have asked me to monitor the mileage.
Driving the car there averaged 43MPG drive back similar speeds got 44MPG so no significant improvements.
The book quotes 47.1MPG Urban, 64.2MPG Extra Urban and 57.5MPG combined.
My Previous A4 B8 2.0TFSI quoted figures was obtainable, I cant see the engine loosening up enough to give anywhere near the book figures, and I am sure was getting better mileage when I fist had the car.
Would appreciate any other figures from similarly specified C7s, would anyone recommend me contacting Audi UK direct to get some feedback from them?
Re: Real world MPG 2.0TDI
Dont panic to much yet chaps.
The 2.0tdi is a very tight engine indeed. My B8 Multironic was dyer when new but has improved at 10, 20 and 30k. Round town 40ish and a run will see 50+ more often than not.

Re: Real world MPG 2.0TDI
Are these MPG numbers taken off the fuel computer? I'm not sure that the one on my A6 is that accurate and is a bit optimistic - don't know how much this varies from car to car. I use figures from tankful-to-tankful fillups. I've now done a bit over 2K miles in my 3.0TDI Quattro and averaged about 40-41MPG from new. Mostly motorway cruising to date, though, although I get the impression that its consumption is better in all conditions than the previous model (same basic spec). Admittedly it spends most of its time in "E" mode with occasional use of paddles to give an overtaking burst.
