    MPG has gone to shyte

    Due to the lovely sound of the AWE touring exhaust. Seriously, I looked today and my MPG was 11. Yes 11! I do hope after the honeymoon is over I can get back to reasonable MPG.

    Anyone else have the same issue?

    Haha I noticed that so far this week, but haven't gone through a whole tank to calculate. The computer if showing about 11mpg also. Will report back when I do. I wonder if it's my driving or a learning period... Or just the design being less efficient?

    anyone notice the 11.mpg. I realize mpg is file format but it is ironic. Hopefully all see my original post as a joke. I realize my right foot wanting more exhaust noise is causing the impact on my mpg. I won't do the tune due to CPO until 2021 but I can only fear what affect that would have on my MPG and Al Gore's climate change predictions.

    You lot must have heavy feet and be a bit deaf(!); had the RS7 8 weeks, 4000 miles and averaging around 24 mpg, up to 34 mpg on long motorway runs and I don't hang around.
