Miles to a full tank of fuel - GTI

Robiniho77 · Post by **Robiniho77** » Sun Apr 21, 2013 4:27 pm

Am using shell v power ad am currently getting about 250 miles to a full tank.

Computer says I'm averaging 30-32 mpg.

This about right for others or should I be looking at a sensors or a service?

Thanks

Liam

250 seems a little low to me. When I was on standard map I was getting between 270 and 300 ish. Now with a remap and I'm seeing around 330. And I don't drive like little miss daisy either!

Doesn't sound too out of the ordinary depending on the type of driving.. If Im doing lots of motorway miles I'll get over 300 miles to a tank, but driving a lot of country roads with accelerating and decelerating down from and up to 60 (into and out of villages, from junctions etc.) 250 miles is my usual average.

I usually get something like 230 around town because I have a decat and I like the noise ha

Mines like 280 on range comp. But not too sure what I'm actually getting!

I only get about 200 normally! Heavy right foot and living in town centre doesn't help I suppose!

380+ Miles on Revo stage 1 using Shell V-Power

Driving at 60 MPH on cruise control (bored out my mind

), 90% motorway with a 5 mile country lane to work every day

Computer says around 40-42 MPG average per week

Am getting 420 miles out of a tank on a standard car without caring for driving with mpg in mind.

Are you sure that isn't in kms?! If not fair play but that seems exceptionally high!

Why is it unrealistically high? Take this week on mine for an example, done 320 miles thus far, computer still says 90 miles to go

Averaged 44 MPG for the week

Like I said though, this has been 90% motorway, driving on cruise control at 55 MPH
