Mine has done 60000 and is starting to wear on the bolster. Probably because I have to keep getting out to top up the oil so often.
-
My navman is flat, so I just velcroed it to the dash above the radio, so the windscreen is completely clear.
-
Could be worse, I tow a 1350kg van with a vRS petrol and I get 14 to 18mpg. It is over the 85% and stability is noticably better if I load up the car with things like the awning.
-
My 2.0t petrol has done 57000miles and burns a litre every 3000miles (approx 90000km and 5000km).
-
According to the VW web site, it is 189gm on the GTI, so it looks the same engine we already have.
-
Audi are producing a new version of the 2.0 T engine with 211bhp and emissions of only 154gm for the A4. This will make the tax cheaper than the diesel version. Anyone know if this will end up in the vRS sometime in the near future?

high milage tfsi = better mpg?
Arg replied to marco2068's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
31 mpg and 3000 miles per litre of oil at 54000 miles. -
Anyway according to the number plate it is evil, leave it.

Vrs TDI Towing fuel consumption

Hope it is better than my 14mpg when towing. -
(relatively) high mileage TFSI

Proberbly doesn't help that my car is on long servicing which uses a thiner oil plus I have a petrol card, so it also doesn't have a particularly gentle life, specially when other people borrow it. -

Yeah, I meant my particular car, other 2.0T cars maybe ok. -
52000 miles, 1 cruise control stalk, 1 electric boot latch, plenty of oil and the engine management came on tonight on the way home. It's not great but I would consider another.

Unless you like topping up the oil, I m not going to recommend anyone buys my car when it goes back to the lease company next Febuary. It drinks 1 litre every 3000 miles now at 52000miles, what will it be like at 70000 miles when it goes back? -
That's cheating!

51000miles and it is 2 years old. Burning 1 litre of oil per 3000 miles, but otherwise seems ok.
