Hi,

Can anyone tell me the capacity of the fuel tank on a current model A4
1.9TDI?

Many thanks.

16.4 us gallons for the quattro

18.4 for the non quattro

Thats about 12 UK gallons and 10 UK gallons I think, my quattro costs 42
quid to fill from scratch at 74p a litre

The Audi UK website quotes 70 litres and 66 litres, respectively.
That's roughly 15.4 and 14.5 imperial (UK) gallons.

Yup, 70 litres for the 2wd A4, whis is 18.5 & 15.4 US/UK gallons
respectively.

Thanks for that, and to the others who responded. I couldn't find it on
the website, so presumed it wasn't there, but of course after you'd
pointed out it *was* there I managed to find it didn't I?

The reason for asking was that I was chatting with my boss about fuel
efficiency, and mentioned I'd got around 500 miles out of my last
tankful in my A3 2.0TDI, and he was very surprised, saying he often got
more than that in his A4 1.9TDI, and with a lot of motorway miles
usually topped 700. I presumed this must be because the A4 had a bigger
tank, and sure enough it has, 70 versus 55 litres in mine, so his 700
figure would equate to 550 in mine, which is easily achievable with
mainly motorway use.

Ha! I can get around 350 miles on my 82 litre tank, or a bit more if I
drive very gently!

Worrying... Perhaps you should point out to your boss that the size of the
tank is irrelevant to fuel economy.
