Title: 300 tdi fuel economy
Post by: nzoliver on February 07, 2006, 08:20:18

Hi all 8)

Been here before but...
What does everyone get from their 300Tdi (auto).
I get about 700km (435miles) from a tank.

Have worked it out to be about 31.44mpg on average over 3046km (1891 miles).

How say you all??? :shock:

my auto would be roughly the same as that but not with just doing school run and trundling round town etc

Hi, does that mean just around town or is this with a bit of travelling?

i,d get a similar figure to you if i included some reasonable length runs in to the sum but less if it was only running round town picking up kids etc shopping and the like, if you get me
its much better on motorway work than town work for fuel economy

I think I got 435 out of the last tank but that was at least 250 miles on motorway and also some low range towing to make some trailer breaks come on and off as a mate was adjusting some breaks on a trailer.

It worked out to be 16p a mile.
