Mark, a little off-topic but how have you found the noise of your 2L TDI? Currently awaiting delivery of a 1.6TDI, coming from 3 x 1.6 petrol cars, my only reservation is that its going to be noticeably louder. But with the newer engines its pretty smooth I imagine?
You'll never get away totally from the rumble of a diesel when idling , but it's the quietest diesel I've ever had, and on the flip side sounds sweet at speed when putting your foot down!!! .... Safely of course

I feel Audi seem a long way off of their figures but may be wrong . Anybody else got similar thoughts?
I agree. VAG seem to be one of the worst offenders. BMW seem to get much closer IMO.
Land Rover are the worsted in my opinion, just got shut of my Evoque which is supposed to do 47 combined, I drove that car like a nun and still only averaged 29mpg and that was quite a lot of motorway driving.

I recall the government invested almost £30m of the tax-payers' money in the Evoque as it was meant to be a super-green 4x4. I'm really surprised that no one has taken Land Rover or the government to task over this. A hybrid was also part of Land Rover's promise which hasn't been delivered.
The audi has been running at around 40 mpg over 2000 miles since I received which I am concerned about, this is also with AC off and me driving carefully. I know it's early days but still !
Getting 50/51 mpg on a 40 mile run each way to work. It seems to be going up each day!
This is on a busy A road in East Anglia/Lincolnshire, steady trundle with the odd overtaking opportunity!
This is in Dynamic mode all of the time.
.... and are you following the guidance from the shift arrow or are you doing your own thing?
As the dial says , 58 min journey , 41.8 miles . This was on a Friday commute home M25 , A3 , stop start past Guildford so a good mix of driving . Was cruising about 65 I would say .
No , mileage is 2600 approx at present
