The MK6 Fuel Consumption (Most / Least per Tank) Thread

[brimway]

Got 6.1L/100km in the GTI. That was with the A/C on and 31 degrees on a return journey from the Coast. Based on the MFD, my range was 850-860km.

Pretty awesome - I think that APR tune does make a difference.

You won't get anything like that tomorrow

Are you on Guy's payroll?

syd-bne avg 6.7l/100km in the gti.

Best on a trip over the holidays - 6.76L/100 - virtually all open road with a loaded car and 2 people on board. Trip meter claimed 6.5L/100.

Best yet, 7.62l/100. 577.1 km and used 44l. I think the lack of traffic has helped as I can get a decent clear run to work. I'll see what happens in 2 wks when it starts to clog up again when people get back to work

879.1km on 51 litres from Sydney to Gold Coast.

Around 5.8l/100km

Just did the same trip. Last time it was just after the 15k service, this time just after the 30k one.

This time around it was 885.4km on 49.04 litres.

5.54 l/100km.

This is after the DSG change that they carried out in the 30k service. Seems to have worse consumption for everyday driving. Hard to make a proper comparison with so many variables at play. This trip was with Caltex Vortex, previous was with BP Ultimate. The trip back will be with Shell VPower. Warmer time of the year so more air-con in use. The trip took roughly the same amount of time - just over 10 hours.

Last fillup yielded 8.33l/100. Put in 47litres.

[gonsped]

This is what I snapped this morning =D

I'd doubt, it'll do what it claims though. The 300+km is what I have travelled since the last full refill.

i got it to 500 on indicated half tank (couldnt be stuffed taking another pic lol) and it said 420 till empty

[Mi16 Man]

Nerd Alert.....MFD states 7.3L/100km avg over the past 5500kms.

Living in CBR helps with little traffic and 80kmh/100kmh zones on my 25km commute.

[SilvrFoxX]

lol.. I was sitting on 11/100 until the stage 1.. now it is sitting around 13.. can't get that right foot under control yet

Ahh fair enough. Mine was on 11.2l/100km before a trip to Sydney last week. Now its on 10.8l/100km - but no doubt it will rise again now. My average speed is 32kph.

Mine is sitting on around 68.

I want to get it higher

My driving of late has been a short run along Military Road, then Lane Cove Tunnel/M2, then F3 to either Gosford or Cooranbong.

Do that a few times and watch the consumption plummet.

Bloody hell. I cant get mine below 10.8 - 11.0L/100km around town. To get 8.9L/100km id have to do 100% freeway/open road driving.

I've been getting around 8.5 consistently on the GTI these last few weeks, and let's just say i'm usually 'late to work'. Very impressed with the consumption, my last four-pot non-turbo subaru never bested 10L/100
