Re: 2.7T Gas Mileage
My 2004 A6 2.7T S-Line with 57,000 miles gets around 19 in mixed suburban
driving with a gentle accelerator pedal and about 24 on the highway. Of
course, when I'm having fun, it goes down to 14 to 16 mpg ...

Re: 2.7T Gas Mileage
18mpg seem a bit low ,tell me ur driving conditions and i can tell u whether the mileage is correct or not,as it varies depending on the conditions . the conditions include the specifics of your car ,climate control, headlights and Fuel type etc.
Usually the computer mileage calculation has an error percentage of 3.5 to4.5% so nothing wrong with the difference in the readings
