Got 300 on last tank, mainly motorway. Some blasts but mainly 80.
Think it was 25.9 mpg av.

About 60-70 miles less than B5.

I'll take that!!

Wonder what version of ecu software the people with the high mpg's are running? My car doesn't have the sw0090 or whatever the last version was and the only time I ever see above 20mpg is through speed restricted roadworks, the norm is around 17ish with mixed driving. I too would love to know how people are seeing north of 25mpg? ..... Will get audi to do the upgrade on mine soon and see if that makes any difference?? There is quite a variation posted here, makes me wonder if there is something wrong with my car!!! Lol!!
