According to the trip computer on my motor i average around 35mpg and that on a 12 mile trip to work and back so i do around 25 miles a day. If i go to london to see my relatives, i see 40+ and the only mod is a panel filter.

and just to add remap does not help mpg but puts a great smile on your face  :grin:

Doesn't help it, but doesn't affect it either.

80% of your posts are total tripe, as they are mostly replies to sh1te posts created by the morons that, unfortunately this forum attracts.

I wouldn't think there is anything not to believe, I managed over 600 miles on 55L of petrol. My trip computer was reading over 47mpg average which if anything is under reading.

TBH the MPG the computer says is a lie really but I get about 320-340 miles per tank :)

You can calibrate the trip computer using Vagcom.

So far I've seen an average of 30MPG which has been a mixture of motorway and around town driving.

I've only opened it up a few times and mostly been trying to drive steady.

I have the Stage 1 remap and a panel filter (AGU)
