A5 2.0 Tdi Convertible

[carsarecool]

A friend has had one of these for about a month and he's worried about the fuel consumption, averaging approx 39ish over 4000 miles.

Is this about right?

Interested if anyone else has one of these motors and what sort of mpg they're getting.

Thanks.

39 sounds good.

I hope he's not expecting to get what evers quoted in the book, those figurs are pure fantasy.

I'd agree with Tame Technician on this one, dosent sound like there is anything to worry about.

If he is getting 39mpg general thats good. I have the A5 2.7TDI and get 34 general and 48 on a run

Sounds about right, steady 70 with the cruise on is the only way to get big figures out of the heavy 2.0 tdi cars. Might improve a little once the car is fully run in.

I have a 143ps A4 2.0 TDI multitronic withg 3.5k on the clock and am ave'ing 39.

On a run I am seeing close to 50, but that's in man mode and being very light on the loud pedal.

39 sounds about right to me
