Hello,
I purchased a 2012 Golf 2 Door TDI about a years ago and I have not been getting the best fuel mileage. I have been getting 33-35 mpg on the interstate (80 mph) over the last 10k miles. The car is stock other than GTI front and rear bumper with an neuspeed cutback exhaust. If I do 65-70 mph I can get up to 38 mpg. I have replaced the fuel filter a couple times thinking that could be the problem, but no change after filter changes. The car has great power, no smoking, or rough running. What ideas can you all share for why I am getting under 40 mpg? I have considered doing some emission deletes, but I live in a county with emissions testing. Any and all ideas / suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Kevin
