Lallen Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 I’ve noticed over the last few weeks my Audi A4 black edition has been using a lot more petrol ? I’ve also noticed it’s constantly telling me to gear down. Going 30mph in 3rd but telling me to gear down to 2nd ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnet Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Hello Lee, Thanks for being in touch. I take it you are also using the E10 fuel. On the basis of simple things first, I just wonder if it’s worth leaving the current fuel level drop to reserve, then half filling the tank with the ‘old’ E5, and monitoring that. Perhaps you could let us know Lee. Kind regards, Gareth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stagn8 Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Not much help, but my a5(45 tfsi auto) is in 5th gear at 30mph, the same as my previous Outlander. Third gear (and second) would seem far too low a gear and would certainly explain excessive fuel consumption. I assume it is manual? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
