    Re: What kind of gas mileage do you get?

    My tank is 3/4th full and already drove 150+ miles. Hmmm, does anyone bet that i can get 450 to the tank?

        I would like to push my car to see if i can get 420+ but I don't want to put strain on the fuel pump. I heard the fuel pump stays cool by bathing in fuel. I usually keep 3 gallons in the tank when i fill up.

          Indeed. Just not worth it, and just running dry once can cause pump failure.

              1999, A4, let it shift around 3-4k usually. hardly any highway miles, my speed is usually around 60(the ideal speed for gas mileage). id say around 21-23 mpg. sometimes more, sometimes less.

              Im at 275 miles, with 1/4 tank left.. that was with 15 gals put in. Id say it will go to about 350 before i need filling up. so im right on the mark.

                that is just because of inaccurate guages... mine does the same...


                I think I got 430ish once out of a tank

                  Our fuel gauge is somewhat f'ed up. That last 1/4 tank goes REAL fast for some reason.

                      I bet you get 350-400 and once your guage hits half it really will drop. :)
