Default 2012 - A5 - Monsoon Grey - Premium - SLINE- MISSISSAUGA / TORONTO - PIX - Question

I took a couple of pix of my first car ever. In any case I got it at 15KM and now its at 3500KM approx (1 Month). I noticed that I fill up quite frequently ... not sure if I am driving too much or if the car is still "breaking - in " .. I get 620KM on a ULTRA 91 fill up.

Any thoughts ?

First of all, congrats on the new car! Nice choice of color...though I can't say the same of your winter rims...lol.

The size of the A5 tank is approximately 64L, so you are getting about 10L/100km. Seem pretty normal, especially if it's mostly city driving.

V4! hang on to that one. It'll be worth a fortune at Barett-Jackson in 2040

Nope...you have a 16.9 gallon tank, which is roughly 64 litres (if it was only 50L, your fuel economy would have been even more impressive).

actually an I-4. the cylinders are in a straight line and not a V. Inline four.

By the way, once the car breaks in, expect better mileage. My car has gotten 34 miles per gallon with the former six speed auto. I don't know what that translates into in Metric.

Monza.. thanks for clarifying...I've been filling up at the first red bar before the R .. So I had max filled up till 50 - 51 litres. ...

I was wondering, the driver display mentions the number of KM left... this morning, I filled up and it showed that I have 690KM... does that necessarily mean I am getting 690 KM from my fill up cause before I would fill up and max I would be getting was 620 KM ... ?

JGA5CAB ... Someone, correct me if I am wrong, but that translates to approx 14.45 per litre X 64L = 900 KM approx ? ... If this is the case... I can't wait ... I noticed that my fill ups thus far have a frequency of approx 4 - 6 days .. out of curiosity after how many M or KM did you notice your car had "broken in " ?
