I know it is early, but......Just wondering what kind of mileage Passat owners have rolled up so far, and if there have been any issues of significance...........I'm at 6000 miles/2months old Saturday, no major issues.
What average speed do you travel on the highway?Initial problem with bluetooth module that was fixed by the dealer. I've experienced no other problems, and am very happy with the purchase. Took delivery on 12-8, and have driven 1,200 miles TDI SEL Platinum Gray/Black. My daily commute which is 50 miles, 80% highway has shown 48 or 49 mpg.It's a very comfortable and smooth riding car.
Average is probably around 65 mph. I just go with the traffic flow.What average speed do you travel on the highway?
The tank lasts up to 15500 miles. Quote from VW site:Got ours 2 weeks ago. Grey TDI SE 6MT very nice. just over 1000 miles and on 2nd tank. Avg 45 mpg with combined driving. Loving it and no problems so far. Although the eura thing scars me. they said the tank only last 5000 miles and if you run out it will not restart. Is there a warning light. I will probably keep some extra in the trunk just in case.
Well, you beat me a bit in the miles driven (Sept 27, 11,900). Sounds like we both have a bit of a daily commute. Mine is from Breezewood PA (south central PA on the turnpike) to Rockville MD (Wash DC suburb).Took delivery Sept 30. 15,560 as of today. No major issues other than fuel tank indicator and headlight adjustment.
Don't worry about the urea. I've already done a 10,000 mile service and never ran out. If you check the manual the warning light will come on some time before it is empty and you should have several hundred miles to get it refilled.Got ours 2 weeks ago.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...........3 days old 655 miles no issues. just did 200 miles this afternoon up I-26 and accross I-40 and got 49.6mpg.
well considering i had a transmission go out on the '12 jetta TDI @ 800 miles it is a good thing. up to a little over 1100 now, still no issues. did my first full fill up today and averaged 48.7 mpg. initally it was a bit lower but had to account for my speedo being off by 2mph @ 65mph. i expect to be over 4k by the end of january and 45k at the end of 2012. gonna love my .55 cents per mile write off come tax season.hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...........
you are kidding right? you are on the how long have you had it and how any issues thread.....655 miles......
you made me laugh sooooo hard...

Would you mind checking your figures again? It doesn't make sense that you only used 1.89 liters of DEP in 10k miles, when VW says 5 gallons per 12-15k miles.10,600 miles with no problems mostly highway miles 47.5 average mpg from new. 3 months old last Saturday.
At 10,000 mile service the dealer said it took 1 bottle of DEF to fill the tank.
1 bottle is only 1.89 liter.
