You seem to get the best economy in dynamic with manual mode. Efficiency makes no difference to me as far as I can work out, save for the odd 50 yards or so of coasting on the motorway.

Is there any truth to people saying the fuel economy increases after a certain amount of time from new, or is that a myth?

Drove my usual routes the last few days, in the usual traffic, on runs that I've never managed over 20MPG on, and got a healthy 25 both ways (reset). I'm absolutely over the moon. 25MPG was the figure that would make owning the car really worth it, and I'm so happy. It now ticks pretty much...

Or, alternatively, you can not be a gatekeeper and just accept that people are concerned about fuel efficiency for a variety of reasons (especially given that this is a thread about MPG; it boggles the mind why you'd be in here debating it), and the least likely one being "affordability". Most...

No it isn't - you're just disagreeing for the sake of it. Pretty much everyone has a fair understanding of what "heavy traffic" is. God only knows why you're acting like agreeing in general terms about such a trivial matter is some kind of impossibly abstract entropic concept.

No, but all commutes are similar, so it's pretty easy to infer an average between vehicles. People report heavy traffic commutes of 25mpg in the A45, something that isn't possible in an S3 in any condition.

I lol'ed at that, but ****** hell, that's my worst nightmare.

Real world reviews of the AMG A45 seem to suggest far better economy. I've seen comments of people getting 25+ mpg on city commutes. I'm lucky if I get 15.

Hence why I clearly stated it was an outsiders view. This isn't a tricky concept, dude, you're just not a very smart, so you're struggling to understand why your point is so hollow. Which is, in turn, precisely why you keep taking what I say and turning it around - at least try to have an...

No, my comment was related and pertinent to the topic. Yours was something a surly 14 year old would come up with in substitution of any real point to offer Well done, mate, you've pointed out that other areas of the country are crap - incredible insight, great contribution.

Yes, you could say that for literally everything about every conceivable topic. And in all instances it would be a pointless and asinine observation to make, just as it is now. Bradford is every outsiders vision of hell on earth.

Although this seems to have upset a few people, I totally get this mentality. Metropolitan areas become infested with the kind of people in this video, and they do nothing except pollute the gene-pool and destroy the societies they infest. They pass their lack of civility down to their equally...

What I did to get around this was demand the leasing company screenshot their system to prove he order had been made. The screenshot contained the order number and I used it to register with Audi and get all the info.

Yep, he claimed it wouldn't throw up a TD1 - such an irresponsible claim to make, and its no surprise that he vanished from the thread when questioned about it.

I like how the people in the other car are kind of mocking the guy for not wanting to be killed. "He's SHOOK BRUV HAHA" Yes, when presented with the option of being stabbed to death, or not being stabbed to death, most people will choose the latter.

I think it's pretty fair to say their issue was with the pedal box. You fitted something that causes stress on components (in their mind) This is what terrifies about this forum. OP says his warranty is void, all comments are "nah, shouldn't be", yet he's literally stating that it made his...

Hi mate. I drove a 435D Xdrive before. I know you're going to point out it's a diesel, and that's fair, except I think any extra fuel efficiency from it being a diesel is offset by the fact that it's much larger, heavier, and has two extra cylinders and twice as many turbos. Yet, it's still 40%...

Mag ride is excellent. Have driven with and without, and it makes a ton of difference day to day.

Doesn't matter what S3 you buy, it'll never be a "purer drivers car". And only on Audi-Sport will you ever find someone who can notice a 0.1 quicker to 60.
