Hi, the thing is she's not new, now 20 months old with 35k miles on the clock. Don't think I've got economy mode in the options but we don't drive her particularly hard, no more than the X5 anyway. I was hoping for maybe mid to high 30 mpg, maybe I'm expecting too much, it just doesn't seem much more than the X5 which was a 3.0 diesel with an auto box & weighs about 400kg more than the A4 Avant which is manual & has stop - start ?
I know you can't go on manufactures figures but Audi quote 44.8mpg on urban, 60.1mpg on extra urban & 53.3mpg combined, I'm nearly 14mpg off their lowest quoted figures.
I will check her myself next time I fill her up but can anyone confirm their average mpg on mainly short trips ?
