Fuel Consumption 1.8T AEB Engine

[Peter D]

I did two long runs last week in a 1.8T AEB A6 Saloon 98. On one 100 mile motorway section of the motorway at 72 mph I averaged 40.8 mpg. Overall 405 miles 38.9 mpg southbound and on the return 38.7. BP Shell fuel. Regards Peter

You must have driven like a saint! Impressive figures for the 1.8T.

My home is in central Scotland so as soon as you are on the M74 you have a clear run well into England before traffic and roadworks inhibit smooth progress. I also did not have cruise control, I had brimmed the car at both ends and both journeys and the overall average displayed very closely match the actual consumption. Regards Peter
