TDi 5th gear.

[Tim]

for anyone after more gearing info on some of the vw trannys i have a spreadsheet. I have highlighted the one that is applicable to our locally delivered VR6s in red. Shows final drive and all the gear ratios

i'm up to about 470km now and i reckon i've still got about 15-20L let in the tank.

Thats nice I have done ~75kms and I have already used 1/4 of a tank

Just over 1/2 a tank or so and your up to 470kms... dang. So what's your average consumption, like 6L/100km's?? Thats bloody impressive! Even with a 1.6/1.8L engine.

Bring it to Wakefield and I bet you don't get that low a figure anymore

Give me an hour and I bet I can probably empty my tank

An hour is VERY good work. Would be a very fun hour no doubt

yeh i've been trying to keep it low since the first mention of fuel consumption on here...

I waited till it got completely empty and then I put 50L in. So far it has probably 2/5ths left... the CL (1.8L) doesn't come with a trip computer so i'll have to work out the average when it is done - give me a week or so.. lol

most of my driving is long roads at 60-80kms and the occassional freeway run when i miss the train (@ 110kmh). the only time it gets above 4000rpm is when i am late for the train in the mornings

I live in a coldesac and I can still hit 4,000rpm before I leave the street ... which of course is why my consumption is higher

I emptied the tank in dads old Audi 1.8t in about hour going just about flat out hahaha

Thank god for Motorpass hahaha

mine does 2600 rpm at 100. But i recon i could live witrh it being lower.

$250 is not that bad for the part.
