What sort of ranges are folks getting with their 2.0L diesel DSGs over different driving types? Just want to get a flavour for how heavy my foot might be with this new car!

Clarified fuel type.

There was a time could just squeeze just under 600 miles from my Mark2 TDI 170 DSG 192 miles a day 2 trips AM and PM about 4 of the miles were local or A roads.

With fairly careful driving about 600 maybe 650 if on a very long run.

2.0 TDI 140

Best MPG had been 75 doing around 50-55 for a long period.

Answers will be more useful if you specify petrol or diesel...

Wouldn't they just? Posted amended.

Average MPG is currently 56mpg. Mixture of City/A Road/Motorway.

Normal driving with the odd spirited blast!

Pah! That’s nothing!

If I’m really careful I can get 28 mpg. Sometimes 29 if it’s mostly downhill. Occasionally I can go 300 miles on a single tank.

The numbers are a bit different with the VR6! 🤪
