I wondered this my new car is not doing as well as my old Mk1 hope it will improve when I get a few miles on it 2TDI only getting low 30s around town, not tried Eco mode does it feel different ie slower etc
@John I wish I could have got a tdi
@John mine is much the same. I haven’t driven very far yet so I am certainly hoping it will improve.
The motor will open after 20K.
I drive in sport.
@Scott what are you pulling for mpgs round the ict in sport mode?
@Jonathan I’m sitting at 27.2 mpg. I do mostly City driving.
I went though all modes and all modes depend on your driving style. I sent suspension to sport and run day to day in normal and kick down to sport when I need too.
43 mpg round town 58 mpg motorway at 75 mph
@Steve tdi?
2.0 diesel
Sorry in england there branded as tdi
I drive in normal, I did a road trip to test this and I found that on long journeys eco does improve your mpg by about 2-5 depending on the fuel (I used 89). For driving around town I found very little difference. Around town i use normal but for road trips I use eco. (US car)
Used to drive in “sport” but after the direct throttle response tweak I drive in “D” now. I drive in eco on long highway drives and pull the shifter back into sport whenever I need to accelerate.
I use normal. I have averaged between 33 to 36.5
Mine must not be broke in enough yet lol. I’m only getting 19-20 in town in normal using 87. I threw it back in eco last night and put 10 bucks in to see what I’ll get for the same amount of gas used (just over half tank to quarter tank)on the last go around.
Jonathan Sorenson Well how hard are you on the throttle. If you’re mashing the throttle from every stop light it’s gonna be bad. Regardless of the mode you’re in
@Dennis I’m a grandpa driver lol. I try to keep my rpms around 2500 in town from a stop. Just easy going no jamming the gas or brakes even though I always end up going 5 over lol. I realized it’s easy to speed in the tig even in eco mode lol.
@Jonathan That’s what I get too
I only get up to 21 in eco. All city driving.
I only drive it in sport. Not sure what it translates to in mpg but right now I’m averaging 8.5-9L/100km with winters on. Summers get 7-7.5 and my record low being 6.7
2.0 tdi 4 motion 190 ps.
Town 8.0 l/100 km
Mode normal.
Suspension comfort.
Highway with 120km/hour 6.8 l/100km
Mode normal.
suspension normal
With eco the car is dead.
