    How much are you chipped RS6 C5s getting per 100km?

    My 2004 RS6 C5 is APR chipped, and im averaging 28litres per 100km city driving. Does that sound right? Even when I drive it around nicely, it shows over 25litres per 100km. Does that sound right? Or should I get it checked out?

    Per gallon my RS6 gets about the same with the Revo engine chip/MTM TCU chip as when it was stock. About 17~19mpg which includes a mix of about 1/4 city and 3/4 highway at 50mph~75mph, maybe the occaisonal sprint to 100+.

    sons of bitches, I must really have a lead foot. Even in fantasy land I don't think I could get that high.

    Mark, was just up in seattle the past couple days for work, was too jam packed with my schedule but next time I swing through, we should get together. BTW, I don't know how you do it up there man, friggin' like driving miss daisy up in seattle. Also, Alki Beach is pretty hot....

    I'm about 50 miles south of Seattle, southeast of Tacoma. I live next to the country (2 lane) highway that goes out to Mount Rainier. I've seen less than 10mpg on a DE event but usually I average about 17~18 with an occaisional 19. I did start using the Aces IV and after about 2 tanks of gas my mileage did increase by about 1~1.5 mpg in the RS6 and by about 2mpg in my tt. I actually believe in the stuff now and will continue to use it. Someone else here on the list turned me on to the stuff. It isn't cheap but you don't use much. I put about 1~1.5oz in the tt and about 2.5oz. in the RS6. Let me know if your up in the Seattle area and I'll come up.

    you have a problem somewhere - slipping tranny could be the issue...

    I average about 19l/100km (or 14 mpg) long term but I live in the area where speeding tickets are negotiable and I do rive a bit on the German autobahn so seeing less than 10 mpg/ 23l/100km is not unusual...

    Revo/MTM here too. Currently at 16.3 MPG which includes spirited runs through the hills.
