Just an update. Garage drained the system and flushed it through, put some diesel in …. And it wouldn’t start. Soooo, more flushing and more diesel and it started! They took it out for a decent run late yesterday, but kept it overnight to make sure it started this morning – which it...

:(:(:(:( I had this 2004 '53 A4 PD130 Sport for 2 years, you'd think I'd know it took ****** diesel.... Fuel light on, 2 miles from home, stopped at garage 1 mile from home. Decided to 'treat' the old girl to some advance diesel, only with my mind on another planet I put advance unleaded in...

Sure, since removing the offending article, I managed to 'trim' the DIS reading to within a couple of mpg of the DIS. I think the value is now set to 105, via VAGcom and I'm getting approx. 47mpg tank to tank. Runs a bit smooooother too. Cheers, :icon_thumright: Westy.

Have you checked the reading with VAG-COM when cold? Anyway, part no is 038906081B and cost was 14 quid. You get the sensor and the housing, but do not need to replace the housing. Just disconnect the electrical connector, pull the green clip out, swap sensors, reinstall clip and connector...

Well, the plot thickens... (I've posted this in another thread in answer to another query, but updated this as well) "Basically had the car for 6 weeks. Impressed by performance but not fuel economy, DIS reading way different. Then I get a warning light, have it scanned and it's a 'Fuel...

Right, this might be a complete red herring but..... I bought my A4 PD130 about 6 weeks ago. Impressed by performance but not fuel economy, DIS reading way different. Then I get a warning light, have it scanned and it's a 'Fuel temperature sensor' error. Get it cleared and carry on. Then buy...

OK, I've changed the value in VAG COM to 115 which, not surprisingly, immediately knocked 15% off my DIS 2 reading - making it 49mpg. I'm going to run for at least 300 miles now and fill up again to see what's happening this time!! :think: This will take me about a week. Could any dodgy...

Car is totally stock, tyres are at 34psi all round and have approx 2.5mm tread all round. Service is due in 2,000 miles, perhaps this will help. Here is the link. http://forums.audiworld.com/a4gen2/msgs/1009862.phtml Will try when I get home tonight and post up what happens. ..and I've...

Thanks for the info, I have found the adaptation channel in VAG-COM (Audi World by the way!) You can only adjust it +/- 15 % though and mine appears to be 23% optimistic. Oh well, I'll give it a go. Still not too chuffed about getting low 40's to the gallon though!:( Cheers, :icon_thumright:

I have VAG-COM....could you point me to a "how to" on this, please. Thanks.

Yes, yes and yes. From last diesel recepit........57.67 litres with my trip showing 517miles. 57.67/4.546 = 12.686 gallons. 517 / 12.686 = 40.75 mpg DIS 2 is showing 57.2 mpg (reset at each fill up). Previous tank worked out a bit better to 44mpg, but still showing 57 ish mpg in the DIS 2...

Hi everyone, First post here, so be gentle (nice forum by the way). After many cars under the bridge (?) I've found my way to an A4 TDi sport, 04 PD130. It's great but.....the DIS is showing 57mpg and my full tank to full tank calcs work out to 44mpg. Any know why the big difference? Cheers...
