TDI in ATX
Member
I am new to this group and signed on to get some TDI advice. My wife and I purchased a 2013 VW Jetta SportWagon TDI this past fall. We were told that the avg MPG should be around 42mpg and once the engine breaks in it should be closer to 50.
We have 15k miles on the car and are averaging 32mpg with our last 2 tanks being 29 and 31 mpg. The highest mpg we ever got on a tank was 36 mpg and that was when we drove straight highway, mostly on cruise control, on our way to the coast and back.
I took the car in for testing this am and the dealership called and said they can't find anything wrong with the car. I will get a further explanation when i pick up the car and will post it then. This is a substantial decrease in lost mpg and negates the reason for turning in our 2011 Nissan.
Does anyone have any idea what is causing this or what I can do? We drive 80-90 percent highway miles with no traffic as my wife is a nurse that works 11-11 where there is no highway traffic.
Thank you in advance.
