Hi everyone, just filled up my 2003 Jetta TDI for the 2nd time & was able to calculate my fuel economy. For my first full tank I got 42mpg. This was a mix of highway driving at 75mph & a lot of city driving. The city driving was mostly very short trips & the temperatures have been bitterly cold. I can't tell you how impressed I am. I haven't exactly been easy on the go pedal either!
I love my little Jetta.
I'm pissed that I'm paying $2/gallon for diesel, but considering I came from a 16mpg 4x4 pickup, I'm thrilled.
Quick question, does anyone know what the fuel tank capacity is for a Jetta? I was about 20miles into reserve when I filled up & with venting managed to get 15.11 gallons in the tank. How close to running on fumes was I?
Thanks guys.
