I live in New England, and have kept a mileage-tracking spreadsheet on all of
our vehicles (for god only knows what reasons

Over its life (I've owned it
since brand spanking new), my S4 has averaged an actual 20.56 miles per
gallon, while the computer-calculated mileage has indicated an average of
21.50 mpg. Not too bad an error rate (4.39%). All fuel used was at least 91
octane; and I'm guessing most of those miles were using 10% ethanol.
The vast majority of my S4 mileage has been on the highway, usually cruising
at around 85mph in top (6th) gear.
Are you driving an A6 S-line, or ? I expect the 6er is heavier than my car,
which might explain some of the difference...
