Gas mileage????
 

Hey hey,

Just wanted to see how many km people are getting on their Audi's.... I have a 04 A4 1.8t and get approx 430km on a tank city driving with very little hwy, is that good? I was thinking I would hit 500km or is that too much? I put premium gas.

Re: Gas mileage????
 

In my A4 2.0T, i can squeeze 500km if i'm easy on the pedal.

Re: Gas mileage????
 

All highway I can squeeze 600 out of my 3.2 avant. Mixed commuting I can get around 500

Re: Gas mileage????
 

im mainly HWY as well and i get 600 spirited driving or 700-750 on normal driving. 2007 at 2.0t

Re: Gas mileage????
 

i get about 500 mixed. USe the search button there is a thread from a few months ago that has a lot of data on this question.

Re: Gas mileage????
 

I'll make everyone here feel better about their mileage. On a full tank of gas I don't even get 400Km out of my 3.0 A4.

Re: Gas mileage????
 

lmao that made me feel great!!!!! sorry PwrDrifter

Re: Gas mileage????
 

Apparently my right foot is made of lead. I'm going to need some corrective surgery. LOL ;-)

Re: Gas mileage????
 

I have a 4.2 V8...............Don't ask!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Gas mileage????
 

Hah i started to get that recently. I ususally go at about 5% trottle, i have very good sensetivity...but yet again i dont wear shoes when i drive. But on ocassions i like to be adventures and go up to 30 - 35% just to play around :D


V8..... ouch!!!! and the gas prices are going up by 10 cents :D good luck

Re: Gas mileage????
 

05 (b6) 1.8T CVT... best performace: 990km @ 105km/h... highway, of course...

Re: Gas mileage????

I did this on a road trip. Averaging 38mpg imperial, which is 31.6mpg metric. I was pretty proud of the old girl :D

Re: Gas mileage????
 

With 75% highway & 25% city I average about 16 L/100K
4.2L - V8 - 6 Speed

Re: Gas mileage????
 

how did you get the display to read in mpg ?

Re: Gas mileage????
 

I just changed the units to GB miles in the MFI using the control on the wiper stalk.

Re: Gas mileage????
 

2004 A4 1.8tq with 6 speed manual... 520 kms to a tank mixed driving. I could probably get more if I wanted to but I enjoy the right pedal too much... even more now that I have the APR Stage 1+ installed! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Re: Gas mileage????
 

I just changed my air filter and i have noticed an immediate improvement in my fuel economy.
i guess my old air filter was very clogged

FYI

Re: Gas mileage????
 

Ok i got most of you guys beat!!!!!

04 B6 1.8T Multitronic

easy mixed driving(highway & city, 700-800km a tank easy

highway and long trips, gotten 975km out of full tank of 93 octane premium, 91 octane gets me about 900-950km going 120kmh and with 3 other passengers and the trunk full of stuff mind you!!

so far no matter how hard ive driven, usually never got less that 650km a tank!

one time i had lots of adrenaline, drove 200kmh+ a few times on that tank and did a lot of passing, pretty much just showing everybody my cars big rear end and still i did about 10-11 l/100kmh, or something like 20-25mpg!

Re: Gas mileage????
 

^^ Hah i get your show off milage with my regular light driving, but when i have fun a few times a tank, its more or less 375 km. And i am very good with throttle :D

Re: Gas mileage????
 

I have no idea but mine I can reach 450 mixed

Re: Gas mileage????
 

North Vancouver, Mixed

460 avg. Highway easily 600

Re: Gas mileage????
 

Mixed driving 94 octane get about 500km

Re: Gas mileage????
 

WOW. i get 675 to 750 depending on how i stomp it......very impressed with fuel economy.btw i use 91% octane.

Re: Gas mileage????
 

i get 500-600 mix driving.

Highway 800-950.

Hello All,

Great topic haha.. everyones watching the km as the gas prices go up eh? I have a 03' A4 1.8T and I get over 700 easy using 91 octane on regular basis... mixed city and highway.. I have on occasion gotten steady 810 per tank... are all the gas tanks the same size? that might be a factor? I have a 63L i believe..

Sweet Secret of European drivers (Gas is $3.00 per liter) Add 5ml of acetone to your gas tank.
Improvement is at 5 to 10%. You may think that your wife is travelling with you and doing her nails thou because you can smell it.

Re: Gas mileage????
 

Complete vaporization of fuel is far from perfect in today's cars and trucks. A certain amount of residual fuel in most engines remains liquid in the hot chamber. In order to be fully combusted, the fuel must be fully vaporized.

Surface tension presents an obstacle to vaporization. For instance the energy barrier from surface tension can sometimes force water to reach 300 degrees Fahrenheit before it vaporizes. Similarly with gasoline.

Acetone drastically reduces the surface tension. Most fuel molecules are sluggish with respect to their natural frequency. Acetone has an inherent molecular vibration that "stirs up" the fuel molecules, to break the surface tension. This results in a more complete vaporization with other factors remaining the same. More complete vaporization means less wasted fuel, hence the increased gas mileage from the increased thermal efficiency.

That excess fuel was formerly wasted past the rings or sent out the tailpipe but when mixed with acetone it gets burned, though the engine still thinks it is running straight gas.

Acetone allows gasoline to behave more like the ideal automotive fuel which is PROPANE. The degree of improved mileage depends on how much unburned fuel you are presently wasting. You might gain 15 to 35-percent better economy from the use of acetone. Sometimes even more.

How Much to Use

Add in tiny amounts from about one part per 5000 to one part per 3000, depending on the vehicle -- just a few ounces per ten gallons of gas. This comes to between 0.0003 % to 0.0025 % acetone maximum or approximately 1/15th of one-percent. Note that is around .78 cc per liter or one ounce per 10 gallons. Not more than three oz. per 10 gallons

2nd Secret of European drivers: this actually doesn't seem to be true

Funny part:

Re: Gas mileage????
 

my 3.0 get about 300mile...so thats about 480km...I mean if I am kind of easy on the pedal

Re: Gas mileage????
 

i just had 630 km out of my 3.0 on a run from calgary to pentiction.
i must be really easy on the pedal

Re: Gas mileage????
 

Nop, not all gas tank are the same size.

I got 55L on my 01 TT and the same on my 06 S4...

I can get 700km out of the TT on the highway. I am on a trip now to the Magdelen Islands and i got a steady 8,0 L/100km at 120 km/hr.

With the S4 it's harder to keep 120 km/hr. So easy to step on it... but if i do, i can get 500km to a tank with 10,5 L/100 km.
