    T6 150ps urban mpg?

    Hi all, i'm looking a buying a 2017 T6 T32 LWB Blue motion 150ps. Autotrader is saying the urban mpg is 38.2 mpg. Does this sound about right? I have had a T5 140ps 4motion T32 LWB before and that did 31 mpg urban. Does should like quite a bit more but it is a newer and different engine i think...

    TSI mpg with and without remap

    Hi all, Thanks to the replies on here to another thread I posted I'm thinking my use for a van as my only vehicle - a far bit of short local journeys - may rule out a diesel van, so I'm considering the rare TSI. (I can wait). What are people getting from their TSI in terms of mph? And can a...

    huge difference between board computer and real mpg

    Hi all, I have a 150PS SWB 4Motion DSG T6 Multivan (Caravelle for you UK folks) - ie heavy as F... The boardcomputer says my fuel consumption is approx 7.8l / 100 km over the last 2-3000km whereas when measured by fill-ups it is more like 10 litres. I don't consider 10 litres as VERY high given...

    MFD MPG Lies

    I've been monitoring my fuel consumption over the last 2200 miles on my 2016 T6 TDI 102. The long term average 2 on the MFD gives a figure of around 47mpg which would be brilliant if it were true, but it's a total lie! Manually calculating the consumption between successive full tanks from the...

    Fuel gauge going down QUICK

    Hi, first time posting. Upgraded my T4 to a T6 and the fuel gauge seems to be going down really quickly!! It might just be me being paranoid, but I wanted to get some second opinions. These are my readings after a 30min round trip. I have the van booked in for a remap, would that help fuel...

    MPG pleasing!

    Pootling around Ireland’s rural backroads and being pleasantly surprised by my MPG. Wondering whether the diesel, like the Guinness, is of a better quality over here. Thought I saw B9 on the standard fill pump…but don’t think B9 exists as a diesel - just B7 and, in some countries B10 (it’s %...

    Fuel economy difference between t6 and t6.1 California

    I‘m considering buying a t6 but am put off by the fuel consumption of 9 litres per 100 km on a van with 4 motion dsg and 204ps. The same model t6.1 with newer 150ps motor seems to do a more respectable 7 litres per 100 km. These numbers are from sprit monitor.de As far as I understand the key...

    Estimated Range on Dashboard

    On Friday afternoon I filled the van with diesel the estimated range was around 495 miles at the garage: as we drove up the M6 to Birmingham the estimated range increase to 640 miles - at one point the range was going up by 5 miles every few minutes. Any ideas why ? I put it down to the warm...

    MPG - 4Motion

    on my average mph I have a button on the steering wheel to show 1 and 2 for a adage mpg, which is the one I get my mpg reading from as they are both very different readings - yesterday on a trip the 1 said average 28 and the 2 said 38 mpg. I have noticed a massive difference in fuel consumption...

    is there much difference in real life mpg between the 102 and the 110 T30?

    Hello, I am Andy from the Isle of Mull. We are wanting to buy a transporter panel van, not to be converted to a camper as this will become our only every day vehicle. We are looking forward to having nights out camping in it so will make a simple sleeping platform and will also want to remove...

    Would a Remap with 20” affect my MPG?

    Hi, I have a 2016 vw t6, I was after it getting remapped, hopefully to the 150bhp and 330 torque. But I'm running on 20inch wheels, 265/40/20. Would it make any difference to my mpg as I've went bigger in tyres, and will the drive be as smooth increasing the bhp on bigger wheels. Might sound...

    50 mpg. FINALLY CRACKED IT!!

    ***PLEASE NOTE THIS IS NOT AN MPG BRAGGING POST*** I have been a long term sceptic of claims of the T6,s ability to return decent mpg given my inability to get my factory 150 DSG kombi much above mid 30,s mpg during, NORMAL DRIVING. It was claimed and consequently demonstrated by Oli...

    Has anybody decided that paying extra for a branded fuel is saving money in spite of the extra cost?

    I have had my 2017 T6 trendline (150 bhp?) For just over 2 years and 11000miles ( thanks, covid!). I have always filled up at Morrisons, can't recall anywhere else. I know 'they' say to use a branded fuel every so often to 'clean things out'. I last refilled with Shells 'economic' diesel ( not...
