Rs4 B7 rel world mpg

[WilkinsonRS4]

I own a 2006 96k mileage RS4 B7 on V Power fuel only. I've read reviews and some guys say they get 21mpg urban it's gotta be bull I run at 17-19mpg real world so I thought I'd get your views on this and see what your stats are on this!!??
Let's see what the forums views are??
What do you get!?

I think the general forum view is to search for the 300 other mpg threads.

If your worried about economy sell the car ..... I took my audi quattro out yesterday and that does about 20 urban , 34-36 on a run and the rs4 does similar yet twice as powerful . A focus rs does about the same if not worse so you pays your money and makes your choice

Plus 1...ain't got a clue what mpg it does,and don't care...the sound is more than worth it IMO..

[V8mark]

I've often wondered the same thing, it doesn't matter but I usually hover around the 17mpg! 20mpg is only seen on the motorway roadworks!

[RS6chris!]

Try running a C6 RS6!!!

I see single figures MPG wise daily around town, and it's a miracle if I ever better circa 21 on a good day or long run.

Seriously...I couldn't care less....you can't run these cars worrying about some other guy getting 2-3mpg more than you.

I manage to drive 400-450km/fuel tank depending on my driving style and conditions. My neighbor has an Audi S4 B8 and he said he's got similar fuel consumption (appr.14L/100km).

I thought mine was really good. On juice especially when compared to m5 and gtr worth every penny of what they cost to run

[PetrolDave]

I average around 20mpg on my urban commute and around 24mpg on long A-road & motorway drives, or around 26mpg when pottering in southern France.

My worst was 16mpg in the winter of 2008 when it was really cold and a 5 mile commute took 45 minutes stuck in traffic.

But as already said, I don't care about the mpg - the sound more than compensates.

I don't bother looking at MPG but I know it is worse than our 6. From brimmed tank to a bit below the lowest dot on the gauge I had around 136 miles last week. Desperately in need of some MRC love methinks.....

i just put in when it needs it , but i did reset trip 2 a good while ago and its averaged 17.3 over 4200 miles mixed driving , rarely motorway miles as we have none where i live , closest is 70 miles away

[watts6087]

I put £20 fuel in at £1.40 a liter if i cain it i get 16miles out of that!
If i drive like a grandad i get 55miles out of it

[Rick_RS4]

filled mine to the top it said 230 miles , if you bothered about 3 mpg then you bought the wrong car ,

sell and buy a diesel and be happy with 50 mpg

I get between 17-20 all urban, normally 200ish miles to a tank full. There not good on fuel but no performance cars are, even if you get a hot hatch it will struggle to do better than 20ish urban
