Is it essentially pointless in using v-bastard for an S4? Does it need a map to take advantage of it?
My understanding is that the B8 is mapped for 95 RON as it comes from the factory with no benefit from using a higher rated fule. I'm not sure if any of the remaps currently available require a diet of V-power

DIS says 340-360 on mine at each refuel. Always fill at 310 though. 32 mile round trip each day, most A roads, car has now done 28k. I always drive in individual mode, engine dynamic, suspension comfort, steering auto and diff dynamic.

As has been mentioned the car suffers heavily in start stop traffic. My lowest was 150 miles on a full tank, short 2 mile journeys.

Remember winter always makes a dent in fuel mpg aswell (drops 20-30 off the range)
