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

[bugsalanko]

Have a 118tsi running APR stage 1 and just ticked over 12 500km and averaging at present 8.8l\100
With a return of about 650km per tank with mostly city driving.

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.

Average fuel consumption in the R is now down to 8.9l/100km.

The best I've got my R is down to 11.3L/100km. I drive mostly around the city too.

there will be a summer vs winter difference too - right now i am getting anywhere from 10-11 in the day and 9s at night ehen it is 10 degrees cooler. i expect better returns in winter

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

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.

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

[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

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.

[SMOK3Y]

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

[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.

[walbjj]

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

[Syd118TSI]

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.

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
