Audi S3 8P 2007
#1
Evening all,

I’ve just bought a S3 8P (2007) and have been loving it so far. However, I’ve been doing quite a few motorway miles in it and have been driving like a grandma on the motorway to see what MPG I can get from it. I’ve been averaging a rather low 25mpg which seems really low given I’ve been driving so gently. It doesn’t really make much of a change if I cruise along at 70mph or 80mph with cruise control on or off. Has anyone got any suggestions as to why this may be?
cheers in advance.
Tom

with the age of that car a lot of things can cause low mpg. also what is the stated mpg when it was new? that number might be pretty normal for that car.
either way, do a full tune-up. that should be fun.

also, people tend to forget to check alignments and tire pressure.
