I keep hearing how the Toureag TDI has a 700 mile range and fuel tank of 26.4 gallons, same as our TDI Q7.

I have been averaging about 550-590 per tank with 95% highway miles.

I have run this tank to the bone dry, range showing zero, afraid i was going to run out.

When I fill up, it stops at 24 gallons?

Am I missing something?

Where's the other 2 gallons?

thanks,

though range says 0, doesn't mean your car will stop right then and there. most cars have a 2-3 gallon reserve for emergencies, though range may still say 0 miles left in tank.

Plus 1.

And... technically you have two tanks in the Q7, one of each side of the trans-axle.

you dont go to the gas station with the tank empty, do you? there is always 2-3gallons left on any car when the fuel light is on.
