[A4 TURBO]

i have a 1.8turbo a4 my average mpg is showing only 23.9 to abou 24.2 miles. is that about right?? this is my first turbo car so unsure??

That seems a bit thirsty to me. What sort of driving are you mainly doing - round town, motorway, country lanes etc??

I average around 32 - 34 mpg with fairly hard driving on country roads (and a turbo that works properly now - see post on snapped wastegate linkage!). On motorway driving I get around 36mpg. Best records are an upper average of 40mpg with very gentle driving and a minimum of 6 mpg on the 'live time' display with foot to the floor in 2nd and 3rd!!!!

Sounds like you might rag your car senseless or have a drink problem???
